A big hard-hitting Watertown
High School football team, defend-
ing champions of Class B and fresh
from a 20-0 victory over Class A
Brockton High last Saturday, vis-
its Manchester Field tomorrow af-
ternoon for its annual game with
the Aberjona Indians of Winchester
High.
The Injuns were far from being
on the war-path last Saturday at
Concord and unless their all-around
play, and particularly their spirit,
looks a long way up this week end
the probable result isn’t too pleas-
ant to think about.
Watertown is being touted as
one of the best in the Greater Bos-
ton schoolboy ranks this year, with
a veteran team that is big and
fast and spirited. The Scarlet is,
and should be, favored over Win-
chester on the basis of what the
two schools have, and have shown
up to now.
Winchester should, however, play
much better than they did in their
opening game last week, and just
might give Watertown, possibly
away up for Brockton last Satur-
day, a real ball game. The local
boys are big enough to cope with
any team, once they start driving,
and if injuries do not deprive them
of key players tomorrow, they can
make a contest of it.
Defensively the Indians looked
pretty good last week end, even
without their two biggest linemen;
Hennessey, injured on the kickoff,
and Cullen, out with a bad stomach.
Haggerty, Pratt, O’Brien, Riordan
and Dattilo did some effective tack-
ling and the guard play of Cusack
and Hennessey, while he was in
there, was very good. Bellino kick-
ed very well, particularly for a
sophomore.
No one in his sober senses can
pick Winchester over Watertown
tomorrow! The Indians are as yet
too shy of experience to use their
potential effectively. The Star ex-
pects a better showing than that
made at Concord, however.
The kickoff is at 2 o’clock. Wa-
tertown didn’t go for the 1 :30 open-
ing!

WINCHESTER GRADE CROSSING
ELIMINATION
SELECTMEN RECEIVE
PROPOSAL FROM STATE
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
WORKS
The Board of Selectmen has just
received a letter from State De-
partment of Public Works Com-
missioner John A. Volpe agreeing
that Winchester’s contribution to
the project for the elimination of
the Winchester grade crossing and
construction of a diversionary by-
pass across the Skillings estate
will be limited to $190,000. There-
fore the Selectmen arc calling a
special Town Meeting on Thursday,
October 22, 1953 at 7:45 p. m. for
the purpose of appropriating these
funds. This meeting will be pre-
ceded by a public hearing on Thurs-
day, October 15 at 7:45 p. m. at
which time full information on the
project will be available to anyone
attending.
The total cost of the project, in-
cluding the by-pass, now proposed
by the State Department of Public
WorkB is estimated at $6,000,000.
The plan as presented is the re-
sult of years of work by the En-
gineering Department of the State
Department of Public Works.
Countless studies have been made
by the state engineers, and many
others by engineers of the Boston
& Maine Railroad and consulting
engineers employed by the town,
and incorporate suggestions from
many townspeople.
The proposed bypass for through
traffic around Winchester Center
will start at Main street and Wash-
ington street near the Junior High
School, include an enlarged traffic
I circle near the Town Hall, from
where the new road will go through
the Skillings property, across the
i corner of Black Ball pond, under
: both pairs of railroad tracks, then
out on to Main street in the neigh-
borhood of Blind Bridge street. The
elevation of the railroad tracks will
include new plaforms and the rais-
ing of the station at Wedgcmere.
Tiie Bacon street overpass will be-
come an underpass; a new under-
pass will be constructed so that
traffic can proceed under the rail-
road along Common street and
Waterfield road; the underpass in
Winchester Center will include a
large traffic circle, and the Swanton
street bridge over the main line
will be changed to an underpass.
The Swanton street bridge over
the Woburn loop will remain as it.
The Board of Selectmen are
working actively with Thomas
Worcester, Inc., engineers employ-
ed by the State Department of
Public Works for the project, to
provide the fullest possible infor-
mation to the Town at the special
Town Meeting and the hearing to
be 1 «Jd the week previous. The
Selectriien expect to have present
at the special Town Meeting en-
gineers representing the State De-
partment of Public Works and
Thomas Worcester, Inc. Every
effort is being made to show those
interested exactly what is con-
templated.
This special Town Meeting which
the Selectmen are calling for Octo-
ber 22 will he specifically for the
purpose of discussing and voting
on the project. The matter is of
sufficient importance so that it is
felt that a full and uninterrupted
evening should be devoted to its
discussion. At a later date an-
other special Town Meeting is to
he called to vote principally on the
High School project. Other mat-
ters such as Rent Control and the
report of the Personnel Board will
be considered at the second meet-
ing.

the scene of an impressive cere-
mony last Sunday afternoon when

Using the ancient order for the
Institution of a Minister into a
Parish from the Book of Common
Prayer, Bishop Nash conducted the
service before a large gathering of
parishioners, town representatives,
and friends. Also taking part in
the service was a large group of
invited clergy as follows:
The Very Reverend Henry B.
Wasburn of Cambridge, Reverend
William S. Packer of Winchester,
the Reverend Henry E. Edenborg
of Winchester, the Reverend Mal-
colm Taylor of Boston, the Rev-
erend James L. Tryon of Medford,

tant Minister, Christ Church, Cam-
bridge, the Reverend Professor
Joseph F. Fletcher of Cambridge,

to the front door of the church to
the new rector, saying, “In the
name and behalf of the Parish of
the Epiphany, I do receive and ac-
knowledge you, the Reverend John
W. Ellison, as Priest and Rector of
the same; and in token thereof,
give into your hands the keys of
this Church.” Bishop Nash also
presented to Mr. Ellison copies of
the Bible, the Book of Common
Prayer, the Constitution and Can-
ons of the Protestant Episcopal
Church with these words, ‘‘Receive
these Books; and let them be the
rule of thy conduct in dispensing
the divine Word, in leading the De-
votions of the People, and in exer-
cising the Discipline of the Church;
and be thou in all things a pattern
to the flock committed to thy
care.”
The special music included sing-
ing by the congregation of the
Gloria in Excelsis and of Psalm
26. The choir sang as an anthem
“Hear My Prayer” by James.
Following the service some five
bundled people gathered at the
Parish House to greet and welcome
Mr. and Mrs. Ellison. In the re-
ceiving line with the new rector
and his wife, were Bishop and Mrs.
Nash, Mr. and Mrs. Albert S. Croc-
kett, and Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell

| and well into the evening. Among
out-of-town guests were Mrs. Til-
ley’s niece, Mrs. Margaret Brown
of Newport, Mrs. Brown’s son,
Clement, and his wife and small
son, ‘‘Clem, Jr”.
Many flowers received during the
day with other birthday gifts dec-
orated the house for the late after-
noon and evening festivities, and
Mrs. Tilley received many cards
and other messages of congratula-
tions. Among the guests who call-
ed was Mrs. H. N. Bernard, who
years ago was the Tilleys’ next
door neighbor on Cutting street.
Mrs. Albert Crockett, who as the
young Margery Tower lived near
Mrs. Tilley, brought flowers from
the altar of the Church of the
Epiphany. Mrs. Tilley was also
pleased to receive a birthday call
from the Epiphany’s new rector,
the Rev. John Ellison.
Every one who called to express
birthday felicitations was invited
to Mrs. Tilley’s one hundredth
birthday by the sprightly little lady
whose keen wit and sense of humor
have not been dimmed a hit by the
years.
She has lived in Winchester fori
half a century and has been alone
since the death of her husband,
keeping her home ami caring for
herself in a way to win the admir-
ation of every one. Her health and
grasp of things are remarkable and !
she recalls many an interesting I
anecdote of the old days when she
and Mr. Tilley came to Winchester
from Newport.
A friend to all, young and old;
always ready to help or inspire,
Mrs. Tilley is beloved by all who
know her. The Star joins her par-
ticular admiration society in ex-
tending its personal congratula-
tions and is looking forward to
greeting “Emily” on that hun-
dredth birthday she jokes about!

FRUIT AND FLOWER MISSION
On Tuesday morning, September
29th, Mrs. George B. Redding, 10
Cranston road, very graciously en-
tertained the ladies who have given
so generously of their time
throughout the summer to the work
of the Fruit and Flower Mission.
Representatives of the various
churches and garden clubs shared
their experiences, and expressed
appreciation for the flowers which
have been donated for the past four
months. The work of the Flower
Mission has been going on for 84
years, Winchester residents hav-
ing been active in it for almost 50
years. Many helpful suggestions
for future years and a feeling of
town-wide cooperation resulted.
LOCAL MEN
IN HOLY NAME RALLY
TO PRESENT JOHN ALLAN MAY
I
Over 45,000 men of the Holy
Name Societies of the Archdiocese
of Boston, numbering 350 parishes,
gathered at Fenway Park last Sun-
day, September 27, for the Fifth
Religious Rally for Men since 1947.
Sponsored by His Excellency Arch-
bishop Richard J. Cushing, D. D.,
the keynote of the Rally was “Per-
sonal Holiness”. Pledge cards
signifying extra devotions to he
performed by the men between now
nnd Christmas were placed in spe-
cial containers in front of the beau-
tiful outdoor altar. Preceding the
religious portion of the festivities
there was a tremendous exhibition
wherein 1,000 American flags from
over 300 parishes were carried in
parade by Holy Name men and who
formed a huge cordon around the
entire field ns a climax of their en-
deavors. Over 800 Holy Name men
acted ns ushers for the day while
under the Transportation Commit-
tee facilities for over 400 buses
were maintained.
The three hour long assemblage
included an address by the Arch-
bishop, a religious pageant and
massed field demonstration and
solemn pontifical benediction. The
Adjutant General’s office said the
display of flags was the biggest
gathering of flags in one spot in
New England. Flag bearers stood
three deep in a perimeter enclosing
the seated participants on the field.
Four crack C. Y. O Bands took part
while more than 1,700 Priests
marched, many from 24 Religious
Orders. Approximately 3,500
marchers took part in the hour long
religious procession with the Red,
White, and Blue caped Holy Name
“letter men” who are Presidents of
their own Parish Units, contrasting
sharply with the black, white and
brown habits of the clergy. The
Presidents were flanked on either
side by other Holy Name men to
form the huge H. N. S. letters.
In his address the Archbishop
asked, “What does it profit a man
to gain the whole world and suffer
the loss of his own soul ?” He call-
ed upon the Holy Name men to
strive for personal sanctity, with-
out which all else is vain, empty
and pointless.
Taking part in the festivities
were James F. Murphy, St. Mary’s
President in the Letter Section on
the field with William McCormack
assisting in forming the letters.
Flag Bearers were Anthony Doyle,
Laurence Erhard and Thomas Mor-
rissey. Vincent Erhard served as
Vice-President of Field Demonstra-
tion and Spiritual Director Rev.
Joseph McCall marched with the
Clergy.
The Immaculate Conception
parish was represented by Rev.
Herbert K. A. Driscoll marching
with the Clergy with President
Sam Kinton and Joseph Zaffina in
the letter formation. Flag bearers
were Timothy Connors, Albert
Thorne and Clement Landry. Win-
chester members of the Executive
Board of the Woburn District were
William J. Croughwell and Vincent
Erhard. The Woburn District is
made up of parishes in 12 nearby
communities.

was during this interim that Mar-
shall definitely decided to make the
change from Harvard to Carnegie
Tech., realizing finally that that
was the field of the theatre where
he wanted to work. He was for-
tunate to be able to take this course
since it is very limited, having pro-
fessional standing, and rated as
one of the foremost courses in this
field in the country. Since Mar-
shall’s ultimate goal is to take a
Master’s degree at the Yale Grad-
uate School of the Theatre, the
training at Carnegie Tech will be
indispensable.

In the annual fall tournament of
the New England Senior Golfers*
Association held at the Weston

Hayward played the full eighteen
holes.
Our well-known townsman, Nel-
son Seelye, who has passed his
eighty-eighth birthday, is remark-
ably active for his years, and is the
last remaining active golfer of the
group who were members of the
Winchester Golf Club and partici-
pated in the organization of the
Winchester Country Club in 1902.
Other Winchester seniors who
played in this tournament were:
Alfred M. Bond, W. D. Eaton, G. S.

Work, study and travel wore
again the favorite vacation pursuits
of Winchester teachers, according
Lo a recent survey conducted by the
school department. Though many
a non-tenehor has pictured the
school maria's summer as a life of
ease, only a handful of teachers
enjoyed that enviable status.
For most of the men and not a
few of the women on the staff a
summer job helped to keep the
family exchequer in balance. The
wide range of these teachers’ inter-
ests and abilities is seen when their
varied positions are listed. They
included those of road engineer,
camp director and counselor, recre-
ation director, boys’ club worker,
summer-school teacher, silversmith,
carpenter, painter, printer, contrac-
tor’s helper, guest-house operator,
waitress, and excursion-boat cap-
tain.
Summer school lured a sizable
number of teachers for the tradi-
tional busman’s holiday. Boston
University, Harvard, University of
New Hampshire, University of
Innsbruck (Austria), Boston State
Teachers College, Fitchburg Teach-
ers College, and the Hyannis Sum-
mer School were among the schools
enrolling Winchester teachers. At-
tending the conference of the New
England Association for Supervi-
sion and Curriculum Development,
held at the University of Connecti-
cut, were Miss Leonor Rich, princi-
pal of the Washington and Noonan
Schools, and Miss Sybil Daniels,
science teacher at the high school.
The majority of those who trav-
eled during the summer confined
their trips to the United States and
Canada. A fortunate few, however,
were able to spend their vacations
learning about the people and coun-
tries of Western Europe at first
hand. Visiting France, Switzerland,
Italy and England with other Win-
chester people, Mrs. Ella M. Stacy
found time to study German at the
University of Innsbruck in May-
hofen, Austria. Miss Eleanor Ani-
fantis attended the International
Conference on the Role of Music
in the Education of Youth and
Adults, held in Brussels, Belgium,
under the auspices of U.N.E.S.C.O.
in collaboration with the Interna-
tional Music Council. Also traveling
in the British Isles and on the Con-
tinent were Mrs. Sylvia Backer and
Miss Mary McAuley. An extensive
auto tour of Spain was taken by
Everett Bolster, who reported fa-
vorable impressions of the compar-
ative prosperity and stability of
that country.
For those teachers who neither
worked for wages nor studied, nor
traveled far afield, summer days
provided opportunities to catch up
on a myriad of household chores, to
read the hooks for which there is
never time enough during the
school year, to enjoy a few quiet
hours free from the pressures of
the classroom.

The third meeting of the Wyman
Mothers’ Association Board for
1953-54 was hold Tuesday evening, 1
September 29th, at the home of the •
President. Mrs. Charles P. Reeves.
The hope of making n gift of a
television set to the school has had i
to he abandoned, as a proper one
for school use is too expensive. It
is expected that eventually TV will
come to all the schools through the
School Department. Mrs. Reeves
has obtained from Miss Lowry,
however, a “Christmas List’’ of a
number of other items which are
badly needed by the school.
Plans for the fall meeting at
7:45 p. m. on October 15th, feature
n talk by and informal reception
for Dr. Harry V. Gilson, the new
Superintendent of Schools.
Mrs. Thomas Hill and her Ways
and Means Committee are pro-
gressing rapidly with plans for an
informal dance on November 7th,
which gives promise of being as
successful in every way as the one
held last spring.
Since Dr. Volta Hall’s talk to the
mothers at the last annual meeting
was so thoroughly enjoyed, it was
decided to ask him to address an
evening meeting in March.
Delicious refreshments were en-
joyed by the Board after the close
of the business meeting.
CITIZENSHIP DAY AT
NOONAN-WASHINGTON SCHOOLS
Citizenship Day was appropriate-
ly observed at the Noonan and
Washington schools recently, when
the pupils of Grades II through VI
gathered in their respective assem-
bly halls to present special pro-
grams. Citizenship Day in our
schools is sponsored by the State
Department of Education to en-
courage an understanding and ap-
preciation of the privileges and
responsibilities of citizenship in a
democracy.
The program at the Noonan
School, with Joseph Butare as the
announcer, was as follows:
Salute to the Flag
Singing of “America”
Grade VI — Explanation of why we
celebrate Citizenship Day, our
Rights and Duties under the Con-
stitution
Grade II — Foreigners Can Be
Citizens, Too
Grade III — An Original Song
Grade IV — A Good Citizen’s Code
Grade V — Original Stories, fol-
lowed by a Group of Patriotic

Singing of “America the Beautiful”
A similar program was presented
at the Washington School.

FUMBLES PAVED WAY TO
WINNER’S SCORES
An alert, spirited Concord team
cashed in on its two scoring oppor-
tunities Inst Saturday afternoon,
converting two deep field Winches-
ter fumbles into touchdowns thnt
gave the Patriots a 13-0 victory
over the Indians in the first foot-
haU game between the two schools
since 1939.
Concord deserved to win. Con-
siderably outweighed by Winches-
ter, it played with a lot of spirit
and seemed much further along
than the Indians, whose big line-
men were continually outchnrgcd
by the lighter Maroon nnd Gold.
For all its edge Concord showed
nothing like a sustained offense,
nnd had it not been for a coUple of
local errors the game might well
have ended in a scoreless stalemate.
Neither team really threatened on
its own throughout the game,
though Winchester early in the
game did reach the Concord 12.
Concord made five first downs to
three for Winchester nnd had a
rushing edge, 100 to 57. The Patri-
ots completed one of seven passes
for nine yards, last 35 yards in
penalties and fumbled twice, recov-
ering once.
Winchester completed two of 10
passes for 18 yards, lost 45 yards
to the officials and fumbled five
times, recovering twice. The
second half of the game was very
even statistically with Winchester
making two first downs to Con-
cord’s one and rushing for 39 yards
to 27 for the Patriots. Winchester
completed one short pass out of
four tries the second half while
Concord threw only one aerial
which fell incomplete. Concord
lost 35 yards from scrimmage
with Winchester losing 23.
The Indians lost a great chance
to force the breaks by driving Con-
cord hack deep in its own territory
right at the start of the game when
Dave Pratt fumbled a towering
punt in the midst of a circle of
maroon jedseys, Concord recover-
ing on Winchester’s 47.
The big Winchester line was
stopping Concord dead at this
phase of the going, and Magoon
liad to kick, Bcllino making a nice
20 yard runback which was nulli-
fied by a fifteen yard clipping
penalty.
Bellino had to kick and a good
runback by the Concord safety was
also spoiled by a clipping penalty,
the Patriots being forced back to
their 40. Pratt pulled down
Dougherty on an attempted sweep
for a two yard gain. IDattilo mur-
dered a sweep the other way for an
eight yard loss and O’Brien hauled
down Magoon away hack on the
Concord 21. Magoon kicked short
and outside at the Concord 30.
Here Winchester made its only
serious threat, Murphy bucking for
short yardage and Pratt hitting
O’Brien with a pass for a first
down at the 15.
Bellino was dumped for a two
yard loss on a pitchout, Murphy
got back three on a buck and a pass
was grounded. On fourth down
Bellino was stopped at the 12 on a
sweep and Concord took over.
The Patriots proceeded to rack
up three first downs, advancing
from their 15 to the Winchester 34,
before an offside penalty and some
great line play by Jim Cusack
forced them to kick.
Magoon’s kick was run back
nicely by Bellino to the 35, hut an-
other clipping penalty, forced the
Indians away hack to the one yard
line.
Lindsey replaced Pratt at quar-
terback and Haggerty picked up
four yards. With every one look-
ing for a kick, a pitchout to Hag-
gerty was called and over-eager
Bobby hobbled the hall which roll-
ed behind him into the end zone
where it was eagerly pounced upon
by Concord’s Boh Downey. Boh
Amundsen squarely blocked the try
for point-after by placement.
Winchester had a chance shortly
afterward when Mantini recovered
a Concord fumble at the Patriots
35, hut Pratt stumbled and fell be-
hind three man interference on
what looked like a promising sweep

after picking up only three, and
Murphy bucked for the same yard-
age before Concord intercepted a
pass at its 20.
A fifteen yard holding penalty
stopped Concord and on the last
play of the half, Capt. Riordan in-
tercepted a Bouchard forward to
hull and drive his way to the Con-
cord 27, nearly getting away.
Winchester started well the
second half, Pratt running the kick-
off from the goal line to the 15 and
Haggerty and Bellino making first
down at the 25. Haggerty added
three, hut a pass over center was
blocked and on the next play Hag-
gerty again fumbled, Concord re-
covering on the Indians’ 20.
Cullinane broke through for a
first down at the 10, being tackled
by Bellino. Bouchard squirmed
through to the two and in two
bucks Bob Davidson went over. De-
Ruzzo added the extra point.
From then until the final whistle
it was even Stephen with Winches-
ter having slightly the better of
what going there was. Several
times the Indians looked like they
might get going, but each time, a
fumble, or penalty slowed their
war-path pait down to a walk.
Cusack and Hennessey played
well in the center of the line and
it didn’t help too much when the

At a recent all day conference
of top officials of the American
Motorists Insurance Company at
the Hotel Statler in Boston Rep.
Henry E. Keenan of Arlington
stated that the “biggest increase in
fatal traffic accidents during the
past four years has occurred on the
open highway where more and more
motorists are losing control of their
vehicles and plunging off the road."
Figures were cited to show that
out-of-control accidents increased
more than 40 percent since 1948, in
that year there being approximate-
ly 7,700 fatalities of this type while
the total last year rose to 10,800
fatalities, an increase of 3,100. Rep.
Keenan claims what the Star has
long contented that excessive speed
is the major cause of these ac-
cidents, though drowsiness and out-
right fatigue from long driving are
also important factors. The answer
would seem to be don’t drive 80
just because your car will do it,
and don’t drive when you are sleepy
or over-tired. The real answer of
course, is not to make cars that
will reach the terrific speeds at-
tained hy modern cars, because
with traffic constantly on the in-
crease such speeds can he used in
very few places. They aren’t safe
to use anywhere! However, as
long as curs are built capable of
doing 75 or 80 or 100 miles an hour
there will always be adventurous
spirits who will try to attain these
speeds. That is human nature. The
only solution is cars that will not
go so fast!
However you may feel about
raising the railroad tracks through
town to eliminate the grade cross-
ing for the benefit of the motorists,
and the Star takes a dim view of
the plan (with the exception of the
diversionary highway through the
Skillings estate), the Selectmen
have done well to limit the coming
special town meeting to discussing
the elimination plans and costs.
These items should furnish suffi-
cient material for the considera-
tion of any one town meeting.
Those who have furthered the over-
head, including the town fathers
and state officials, undoubtedly feel
they have worked for the perma-
nent betterment of Winchester. You
cannot quarrel with the “perma-
nence" of their plan, once we get
the great wall through town, but
the “betterment" may still be open
to debate! The Star, for one, would
like to see the diversionary high-
way given a try before raising an
eyesore through our Center at a
cost of many millions.
LETTER OF COMMENDATION
Editor of the Star:
It is always a pleasure to bring
to the attention of the Town in-
stances wherein our young men are
meeting the test and making good.
The following will he of interest to
“Laurie’s" friends as well as those
of his parents: —
“Through Commanding Officer,
Keesler Air Force Base, Miss.
To A/3C Laurie M. Fessenden
I wish to take this opportunity
to express to you my sincere appre-
ciation for the fine manner in which
you performed your duties while
detailed to HQS Squadron Section,

It was a pleasure, even if only
temporary, to have you under my
command for duty. If at any other
time I have you under my command
in u similar situation, I will be
more than pleased to take advan-
tage of thut opportunity. I extend
to you my best wishes for your
continued success and huppiness in
future assignments.

That “Volunteer" in the box on
this page — this time it means for
even ns little as three hours a
month and in a place that’s critically
important to the whole community
the Winchester Hospital. All
private hospitals must depend to
some extent on the willingness of
the town folk to contribute time or
money. This appeal is for your
time; it’s worth money to your hos-
pital — much more than you may
have guessed. Now don’t turn the
page! Maybe you've read this be-
fore, but maybe too you just didn’t
realize we were talking to you.
Why, you’re the one we’ve been
waiting for all ulong if you can
just manage one free morning or
afternoon a month to give to your
hospital.
Now here’s a phone number. It’s
Winchester 6-1912 and rings Mrs.
James B. Harlow who can tell you
how to get in touch with the chair-
men of the various volunteer ser-
vices. (If there’s no answer, call
Mrs. Richard Carons nt Winches-
ter 6-1357.) Right now help is
needed particularly in these three
ways — working in the hospital
coffee shop, taking care of the pa-
tients’ flowers, and mending hos-
pital linen. The shop is so new and
clean you can’t help but enjoy be-
ing there. You’ll even be taught
how to make sodas and sundaes
along with waiting on customers
and can become quite professional
in no time. As to caring for pa-
tients’ flowers — the upkeep here
is time-consuming for the nurses
but real fun and easy enough if you
feel your artistic talent is limited
to changing water and cutting off
stems. And the mending — it’s a
fine art with some of you ladies,
and oh, what the hospital would
give to have a few more hands at
this work. Sewing is done in neigh-
borhood groups for the sake of con-
venience and in good company over
a cup of coffee just for fun.
Now don’t delay! Call that num-
ber, Winchester 6-1912, or Win-
chester 6-1357, and start out the
year helping your hospital. There’s
real satisfaction in doing a job
that's really needed. Here’s your
chance! Volunteer!
"JOHNNY GOES
TO THE HOSPITAL"
The Star received this week, with
the compliments of the author, a
pamphlet, entitled “Johnny Goes to
the Hospital”, written for the staff
of the Children’s Medical Center in
Boston by Josephine Abbott Sever
of Lewis road, whom older res-
idents of Winchester perhaps know
better as the former Mrs. T. Graf-
ton Abbott.
The pamphlet prepares young
children for their first hospitaliz-
ation by informing both child and
parents what is in store for the
youngster through the visit to a
hospital of a little boy named
i Johnny.
’ Johnny goes to a hospital with
■ a stomach ache, and experiences
the preparation necessary to an
operation, learning that at the
worst being hospitalized is not
terrifying, but much of the time
can be fun. The pamphlet is clever-
ly illustrated by Mary Stevens and
prepared under the editorial direc-
tion of Sydney S. Gellis, M. D.
Mrs. Sever, through her personal
and professional experience is well
qualified to write the pamphlet.
Herself a mother of six children
and grandmother of eleven, she was
chosen Massachusetts State Mother
of 1947.
She holds degrees from both
Smith and Radcliffe and as an ac-
credited psychologist was educa-
tional consultant of the American
Social Hygiene Association and
consultant in Parent Education in
the Division of Child Hygiene,
Massachusetts State Department of
Public Health.
Mrs. Sever was for many years
on the staff of the Judge Baker
Guidance Center in Boston and this
year marks her fifth as Director of
Public Relations on the Children’s
Hospital and the Children’s Med-
ical Center in Boston.
Under the provisions of the Zon-
ing By-Laws, ns amended, as ap-
plied to general residence districts,
the removal of earth products, in-
cluding gravel, may he authorized
by the Board of Appeals, except
when permitted ns an accessary
use, if its permission is obtained in
accordance with the procedure and
conditions set forth in Section 8 of
the By-Laws, which provides that
no permission shall he granted un-
less the Board shall find that the
proposed use will not adversely
affect the health or safety of per-
sons living in the neighborhood or
be injurious to the neighborhood or
detrimental to the public welfare.
It is also provided that if permis-
sion is granted, the Board shall
attach to it such conditions and
limitations as to manner and dur-
ation of use, as in its opinion are
necessary to insure conformity with
the spirit and intent of the by-laws.
The Board of Appeals held a
hearing on the Fitzgerald peti-
tion on August 11, at which all
members of the Board were
present. Nicholas II., and James
J. Fitzgerald represented the Fitz-
gerald Fuel Company and Nicholas
Fitzgerald spoke in favor of the
petition.
Present and either speaking or
being recorded in opposition were
Patrick Gallagher, 87 Cross street,
Arthur J. Hewis, 91 Swanton street,
Carlton Clogston, 3G Forest street,
Fletcher Oakes, 29 Forest street,
Patrick Allen, 266 Cross street,
Mrs. Charles C. Carr, 31 Forest
street, Hattie E. Snow, 39 Forest
street, Ruth E. Enstrom, 4 Holton
street, John Hall, 105 Cross street,
Angelo Bruno, 121 Loring avenue,
Anthony Bonsignor, 119 Loring
avenue, Lorenee M. Woodside, 42
Lebanon street and Alice Winn, 22
Stone avenue. Letters opposing
the application were received from
Roderick and Albert MacDonnell,
21 Forest street, Charles C. Carr,
31 Forest street, and Lillian W.
Snyder, 59 Highland avenue. The
hearing was lively and personal-
ities were not spared. Some of the
objection to granting the petition
stemmed from the Company’s pro-
posal to remove some old growth
trees from the land.
All the members of the Board
of Appeals viewed the premises in
question and after taking the mat-
ter under consideration for some
time the Board reached the unani-
mous decision to grant permission
to the Fitzgerald Fuel Company to
remove • gravel and other earth
products from its lot in the general
residence zone, with the following
restrictions.
1. The lot in the general resi-
dence district shall be graded to
the abutting sidewalk level of For-
est street. No excavation shall be
made below such level.
2. The banks between the peti-
tioner’s property and adjacent prop-
erty shall be graded to a slope of
not more than 45 degrees, or such
lesser degree as may be necessary
to support the adjoining property.
3. Both the petitioner’s lots, in-
cluding hanks shall be graded to
reasonably smooth surfaces and
shall he covered with a layer of
soil having an average depth of not
less than 3 inches, and suitable for
the growth of vegetation.
4. All surfaces shall be seeded
for a growth of vegetation ade-
quate to cover them.
5. All grading herein authorized
and the covering of all surfaces
shall be completed before October
10, 1953.
It was the unanimous opinion of
the Board of Appeals that the pro-
posed use, subject to the provided
restrictions and limitations, will
not adversely affect the health or
safety of persons living in the
neighborhood of such use or be in-
jurious to the neighborhood or he
detrimental to the public welfare.

SLOW DOWN AND LIVE"
Success of the “Slow Down and
Live" campaign waged in the
eleven states of the Northeastern
region was reported today by
Regisistrar of Motor Vehicles, Ru-
dolph F. King, Massachusetts mem-
ber of the Co-ordinating Commit-
tee.
Instead of the expected seasonal
bulge in traffic fatalities during the
three-month summer period, there
was a 3‘Z, drop in the number of
deaths as compared to the 1952 toll.
This means that 41 fewer persons
were killed during June, July and
August, despite the 6 r /r increase in
travel volume which set an all-time
summer record for the Northeast
region.
This safety performance was
achieved because of the splendid
cooperation of motorists and pedes-
trians with the enforcement and
control officers who concentrated
their activities on the reduction of
speed as a deterrent to accidents.
“During the June, July and
August campaign, several million
“Slow Down and Live" pamphlets
were distributed in the participat-
ing states — 390,000 of which were
passed out in Massachusetts," said
Registrar King, “and the saving of
41 lives from traffic mishaps in the
eleven-state area is proof that the
slogan was well chosen."
WINCHESTER HOSPITAL NOTES
A forty-hour week was put into
operation for hospital employees on
September 28th, 1953. Because the
hospital operates seven duys a
week, twenty-four hours a day, it
was not an easy matter to rear-
range schedules. However, muny
new employees, including nurses,
have been engaged in the last few
weeks, and because of them the
transition has been effected very
smoothly. The hospital is glad to
bring its weekly hours in line with
general practice.

your home. Inspect and clean
your heating system, correct
faulty wiring, clean out rubbish
such as old newspapers and

The allness of God, good, and the con-
sequent unreality of whatever iB unlike
God will be the theme at Christian Science
services Sunday.
The Lesson-Sermon entitled "Unreality’’
includes the nccount from the Bible of
Christ Jesus’ healing of the man with a
withered hand. It concludes with the fol-
lowing verse:
"Ami looking round about upon them all.
he said unto the mnn. Stretch forth thy
hnnd. And he did so: nnd his hand W’as
restored whole ns the other" (Luke 6:10).
Among the passages that will be read
from "Science nnd Health with Key to the
Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy will be:
"Denial of the possibility of Christian
healing robs Christianity of the very ele-
ment. which gave It divine force and its
astonishing nnd unequalled success in the
first century" (134:17).
The Golden Text is from I Timothy:
"Charge them that are rich in this world,
that they he not highminded, nor trust In
uncertain riches, but in the living Cod. who
giveth us richly all things to enjoy" (6:17).

HELD AS HOSTAGE
IN ATTEMPTED PRISON BREAK
Albert M. Thompson of 16 Gar-
field avenue, assistant deputy war-
den at the State Prison in Charles-
town, was held as a hostage for a
short while Monday afternoon by
five convicts attempting to break
jail.
The attempt was unsuccessful
and no one was hurt. Mr. Thomp-
son said he was notified at 2:46 by
a telephone operator at the prison
that some prisoners were missing
from their work benches, and after
telling the operator to alert the en-
tire prison personnel, he went in
search of them.
The convicts had hidden in the
old underwear shop of the prison,
and surprised Mr. Thompson after
he had gotten too far into the shop
to withdraw. There were five of
them and they had a sharpened
screw-driver and a heavy steel bar
with which they enforced their
command to Mr. Thompson to keep
quiet and he would not be hurt.
Mr. Thompson tried to dissuade
the convicts from their break at-
tempt, but they paid little atten-
tion to him. They did him no harm
and did not harm a second guard,
who also entered the shop and was
taken prisoner by the quintet.
Finally a third guard strolled in
and he wus followed by a group of
officers to whom the convicts culm-
ly surrenderd. Mr. Thompson said
he and his fellow guard huddled
with the convicts for perhaps half
an hour, during which “every one
had his say!”
MISS GLOVER SHOWERED
Mrs. Robert Joyce of 13 Webster
street gave a shower recently at

daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Glover of 1G Webster street, whose
marriage to Arthur LaMonica of
East Boston took place Thursday

Miss Glover received many beau
tiful gifts und ufter the puckages
were opened, refreshments were
served, a decorated bride's cake
featuring the refreshment table.

PAINTINGS BY
EUROPEAN CHILDREN
The Winchester Art Association
will bring a collection of paintings
by European children to the Public
Library gallery for its first show-
ing of the season. This exhibition,
which promises to be of unusual in-
terest not only because of the
talent of the artists but because of
its internaional character, will be
opened at the first meeting of the
Association on Tuesday, October 6,
at 8 p. m. and will be on view until
October 21.
Adelaide Pittaway Sproul, who is
art director at the Shady Hill
School in Cambridge, will be the
speaker at this meeting. Her live-
ly interest and experience in this
field make her a most appropriate
attraction to appear in connection
with this remarkable exhibit.
Following the children’s show
and before the exhibition of paint-
ings of Maud and Patrick Morgan,
opening on November 3, the Asso-
ciation hopes to have a brief show-
ing of the summer work of its
members. All are invited to bring
drawings and paintings to the
Library by October 14 in order that
these may be put up as soon as the
current show is taken down. This
special showing is an added attrac-
tion to the usual schedule, and all
are urged to contribute and to en
joy it.
The Association is planning a
varied program of speakers and ex-
hibitions for the year in addition to
the classes under the direction of
Miss Harriette Smith which are to
be offered to children as well as to
adult members. Either new or old
residents of Winchester who are in-
terested in art are cordially invited
to consult Mr. Fred E. Abbe, mem-
bership chairman, or Mr. Kenneth
Hall, treasurer, if they are inter-
ested in joining the Association.
Mr. and Mrs. W. Henry Fulton of
Natick are the parents of a third
son, James Edward, born Septem-
ber 30, at the Newton-Wellesley
Hospital. Mrs. Fulton is the for-
mer Katharine Hall, daughter of

Winslow road.
WINCHESTER HOSPITAL
AIDE CLASS
DAMAGE AT BACON S MILL
Last Thursday shortly after 6
o’clock Police Headquarters was
notified that after a sound of break-
ing glass, boys had been seen run-
ning from the old Bacon Felt Mill
in Grove place.
Officer John McHugh went to in-
vestigate and on Canterbury road
picked up three out-of-town boys
who admitted having been at the
mill and breaking glass there.
They were taken to Police Head-
quarters and questioned by Lt. Ed-
ward O’Connell.
As a result of this preliminary
investigation Sgt. Edward F. Bow-
ler and Officers McHugh and Doug-
las Martell rounded up 24 boys,
mostly from Medford and Medford
Hillside, who when questioned at
headquarters admitted entering the
mill and breaking glass there. The
names of nine more boys were se-
cured as implicated.
As soon as the owner of the mill
can estimate the damage to the
structure the parents of the boys
responsible will be notified of the
amounts they will have to pay.
METCALF UNION
Members of Metcalf Union, the
high school fellowship at the Uni-
tarian Church, will go to Cedar
Hill, Waltham, Sunday afternoon,
for a South Middlesex Federation
meeting. The group will leave the
church ut 2:30.
The meeting will be held rain or
shine and members are urged to
wear picnic clothes. Games and
recreation will he under the direc-
tion of Louis Chiarmonte, council
member. Dr. William Rice of Wel-
lesley, noted for his work with
young people, will speak on the
subject, “Why Youth Groups?” An
advisor-minister training session
will complete the program.
All members will take a box
lunch, and tonic, ice cream and
cookies will be served.
Nearly fifty young people of high
school age are members this year
of Metcalf Union. A varied and in-
teresting program is being planned.
Miss Laura B. Rogers, R. N., di-
rector of nursing at Winchester
Hospital, reports that applications
are coming in promptly for the hos-
pital aide training class which com-
mences October 19th. There are
still vacancies, but it is advised
that those wishing to join apply
soon to the director of nursing, as
the membership is limited to fif
teen.
The course consists of two weeks
of class work, plus four weeks of
supervised training on the floors.
The students are paid while learn-
ing and will be given full-time em-
ployment upon graduation. The
course is open to girls and women
with two years or more of high
school education. It is hoped that
from this class several aides will be
found who are qualified for further
training as operating room techni-
cians.
These aides in their aqua uni
forms and caps have become an im-
portant nnd attractive group in the
nursing department, and many pa-
tients have commented on their
value. They are making a definite
and direct contribution to the hos-
pital’s care of the sick.
The Board of Appeal in ac-
cordance with Section 147 of
the Building Laws, will give
a hearing on Tuesday, Octo-
ber 13, 1953, at seven-thirty
o’clock in the evening, in the
office of the Building Commis-
sioner, 9 Mt. Vernon Street,

PARISH PLAYERS TO HOLD
TRYOUTS OCTOBER 5th
The Parish Players will open
their 28th year of activity Monday
evening, October 5, with a dessert
and coffee in Chidley Hall, First
Congregational Church, followed
by a brief meeting and try-outs for
casting the falT play* “The Impor-
tance of Being Earnest”. Notices
of the dessert and try-outs have
been sent to Parish Players mem-
bers, but newcomers are most cor-
dially invited to the dessert and
the try-outs that evenings.
The play takes place November
19, 20 and 21, with the Thursday
evening performance benefitting
the Forum, for expenses of their
Spring Conference.
Three new board members have
been elected to the Parish Players:
Mrs. F. Milne Blanchard, Dr. Rob-
ert G. Millican, and Miss Marjorie
McGaw. Last Wednesday evening
the new members were welcomed
at a dessert preceding the first
board meeting, held at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. J. Waldo Bond on
Mason street. Mr. Harlan F.
Grant, the Players’ director, was
also invited to the meeting to dis-
cuss proposed plays for the season,
as was Mrs. Grant, make-up artist
for the Players.
Mrs. George E. Connor is the
newly elected chairman of the
board for 1953-54, with Mrs. J.
Waldo Bond, treasurer; Mrs. John
B. Wills, secretary; Mr. Robert P.
Blake, play reading chairman.
METHODIST MISSION
AND VISITATION
The Crawford Memorial Meth-
odist Church is now in the midst
of preparation for a Preaching Mis-
sion October 11th through the 16th.
Special services will be held on
Sunday morning and then Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
evenings at 8 p. m. The whole pur-
pose of the program is in seeking
to reactivate the members of the
church in the Holy Habits of Chris-
tian living. Dr. Otis Maxfield of
Springfield will be the guest speak-
er. Bishop John Wesley Lord has
stated that “failure to observe
Spiritual disciplines in our lives
weakens our Christian witness be-
fore the community and the world.”
In a world of speedy living, one
thing should be a must in
every man’s life — his holy habits.
Prayer, family devotions, grace at
meal time, following Christian
principles in all our actions, church
attendance, supporting the church-
es sacrificially out of the material
blessings which come from God’s
hands — these and other habits be-
come an important antidote to the
corrosive forces of modern life.
When we get too busy to carry out
the philosophy of life which we be-
lieve in, then we are too busy.
So the Preaching Mission will bi
centered in these things as related
to our home, business and social
life.
Covenants must be made by the
members of the church and it is=
hoped that, from the renewing of
our covenants, there will come a
new spiritual surge which will not
only affect the church, but the com-
munity as well.
Included in the program will be
a special emphasis in church at-
tendance for ten weeks following
the Mission.
Dr. Maxfield, formerly with the
Pastoral Counseling Center in Bos-
ton, will be on hand for private
counseling, wherever needed.

and Mrs. Neil H. Borden of High-

COOKS' KITCHEN TOUR
An invitation to the Cooks’ Tour
of six Winchester Kitchens, to be
open from two to five on Thurs-
day, October fifteenth, has been
extended to homemakers in Win-
chester by the local Mount Holyoke
Club.
Mrs. Richard Sawyer is Ticket
Cheirmnn for this scholarship
benefit.
The six homes to be opened offer
a wide variety of interest ranging
from oldest to newest in Winches-
ter. The kitchens vary from large
to small, from Early American to
Modern.
The home of Mrs. George E. Con-
nor, 403 Main street, which was
built in 1740 and remodelled in
1042, is the former Black Horse
Tavern Black Smith Shop. One of
the oldest homes in Winchester, its
charmingly remodelled kitchen is
in keeping with its early origin.
In the home of Mrs. J. Norton
Kidder at 18 Brooks street will be
seen n newly remodelled All Elec-
tric kitchen, glamorized by color,
truly a picture-book kitchen.
At 15 Lnkeview road, where the
efficient All-Purpose kitchen has
been remodelled, Mrs. Joseph Dol-
ben will be hostess to Mrs. James
Milligan of the Herb Lore Shop in
Lexington. Mrs. Milligan will talk
nformally about herbs and their
uses, and will display her many at-
tractive herb creations.
Mrs. Robert M. Stone will show
the All Electric kitchen in her 1953
Cape Cod home at 10 Wood lane,
a new road off Fernway. The de-
signer of this unusually artistic
and personalized kitchen was Rob-
ert Minot, Associate Architect with
Royal Barry Wills.
Another modern home kitchen
will be on view at the home of Mrs.
Harold Lewis at 43 Emerson road.
Jerome Bailey Foster was the ar-
chitect for this All Pine, All Elec-
tric kitchen designed around a
functional work plan.
At 29 Woodsidc road, Mr. Wnl-
don B. Hersey will exhibit his col-
lection of antique kitchen imple-
ments. Mr. and Mrs. Hersey re-
modelled their Family Activity
kitchen last year. Here, the use
of modern design adds interest to
the Early American atmosphere
created by Architect Jerome Bailey
Foster.

PATENT FOR WEAVER
Eastman A. Weaver of 326 Main
street was the recipient on Septem-
ber 15, 1953, of U. S. patent No.
2,051,939, entitled 'Apparatus For
Measuring The Contents Of Lnige
Tanks”.
This invention pertains to nn im-
proved gauge for measuring the
contents of large tanks such as are
used for the storage of gasoline,
liquid fuel and the like. These
tanks are provided with floating
roofs or covers in order to limit the
escape of the volatile contents. It
should be noted also that it is cus-
tomary to maintain a layer of
water on the tank floor, which is
seldom perfectly tight, because
such water takes care of seepage
and collects sludge which may have
settled to the bottom.
Two types of gauges have been
in common use for measuring the
contents of the foregoing tanks. In
one of them, a float, with a pulley
nnd line assembly, is employed to
indicate the top level of the liquid;
and, in the other, provision is made
for a pressure gauge that is con-
nected to piping near the bottom of
the tank. However, according to
Mr. Weaver, although the latter
method gives a correction for the
temperature nnd density of the
liquid, nevertheless, neither of the
processes makes adjustments for
the temperature of the tank walls,
the gaseous pressure over the con-
tents, or the layer of water on the
bottom.
To overcome these limitations
and inaccuracies of the prior prac-
tice, Mr. Weaver has devised a
novel apparatus which, in its essen-
tials, comprises a fluid-tight en-
closure or "pick-up” with a defor-
mable member therein that effects
variations in the electrical charac-
teristics of a circuit to thus provide
the desired reading. Because of its
location within the tank and the
provision of a flexible tube that ex-
tends to the upper vapor space, this
"pick - up” device automatically
makes corrections for the usual er-
rors due to the above-mentioned
factors. It is claimed also that the
arrangement of this invention is
highly accurate in its results, effi-
cient and reliable in operation, and
easy to check, adjust, repair and
replace.
This patent has been assigned to
Comstock and Westcott, Inc., Cam-
bridge, Mass.

NEEDLEWORK GUILD
1
It is in the spirit of service that
the Needlework Guild of America,
through its National Headquarters
in Philadelphia, has announced the
week of October 4th to 10th as
National Membership Week. Dur-
ing that week in the approximately
C’M) cities and towns across the
country, where this Charitable Or-
ganization carries on its vital work,
Needlework Guild Branches will en-
deavor to interest more people to
become members.
The basis of membership is one
of the unique features of the
Needlework Guild. Membership
consists in giving at least two new
articles, once a year, usually in the
fall. Kach Guild Branch collects
new articles and distributes them
to local needy families, Institutions
and Welfnrc Agencies in its own
Community.
Needlework Guild’s annual as-
sistance helps many hospitals, or-
phanages, schools, visiting nurses,
missions, Red Cross Chapters and
social service workers, to provide
for the needy in their care. With
spiraling maintenance costs, many
institutions would find it impossible
to provide the physical comfort and
psychological boost which warm,
new clothing gives.
The Needlework Guild is the only
charitable organization affiliated
with the American Red Cross, with
which it has cooperated in many
emergencies and disasters. It also
has close ties with the Camp Fire
Girls, Girl Scouts, General Fcder- j
ation of Women’s Clubs and many
other outstanding women and j
youth groups. The Guild is non-
sectarian; its members represent
all races, creeds and colors, in all
walks of life. Membership is open I
to all in this "Charity that Helps |
other Charities”.
What does it all add up to? In
1952 the Guild distributed approxi-
mately one and a quarter million
garments.
For further information please
get in touch with: Mrs. Wayne B.
Thompson, president, 3 Crescent
road; or Mrs. Ben R. Schneider,
secretary, 21 Winthrop street.
DISCUSSION GROUP AT LIBRARY
A weekly discussion group on
"World Politics” will start in Win-
chester at the Public Library next
Wednesday, October 7, under the
auspices of the American Foun-
dation for Political Education.
Running ten weeks, and designed
primarily to develop each indiv-
idual’s own informed opinion on
political affairs, the series will be
based on selected readings from
the world's major political thinkers,
and led informally by two trained
leaders.
What causes war? How can it
be prevented? Can we have both
freedom and political security?
What should we expect from our
American foreign policy? These
are some of the questions to be ex-
plored.
The program was first developed
by the American Foundation for
Political Education in Chicago six
years ago. Now nation-wide and
underwritten by the Fundfor Adult
Education, established by the Ford
Foundation, it is administered in
eastern Massachusetts by the
Greater Boston World Politics
Committee and the United Council
on World Affairs, under the spon-
l sorship of the World Peace Foun-
dation and Boston University.
Membership is open to the gen-
eral public, and there are no edu-
cational prerequisites, but for the
sake of good general discussion
each group must he limited to 32.
Further information on the pro-
gram can be supplied by William
Trainor, Jr., at the Office of the
United Council on World Affairs,
355A Boylston street, Boston 14,
COpley 7-6075.
SOCIAL SERVICE GUILD
The fall meeting of the Social
Service Guild of the First Congre-
gational Church will be held next
Tuesday, October 6th, in Chidley
Hall. A delicious luncheon will be
served at one o’clock, followed by
the regular meeting at two o’clock.
Mrs. Clarence R. Wickerson, Dir-
ector, will preside, and the worship

The speaker of the afternoon
will be Mrs. Amy Powell of the
Family Society of Greater Boston.
Mrs. Powell is head of the depart-
ment of older people. She will
speak on "The Second Forty
Years”.
A cordial invitation is extended
to all the women of the church and

COMMUNITY SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS
The book table was an important
attraction at the Community
School of Christian Education at
the First Baptist Church last Mon-
day evening. A wide selection of
books for parents, teachers and
children wns on display brought by
Whittemore’s Associates of Ash-
burton Place, Boston, suppliers of
religious materials of all kinds.
The Winchester Public Library nlso
had a display of hooks under the
leadership of Mrs. Hugh J. Er-
skine, literature chairman of the
School. Those attending found
much of interest nnd help in the
material available in these two ex-
hibits.
Teachers of young children are
finding practical guidance for their
Church School classes under the
leadership of Mrs. Vart Andon, nnd
Mrs. Warren Hunt. Mrs. Andon is
teaching the class in Nursery and
Kindergarten work. A graduate of
Boston University, she attended
the Nursery Training School of
Boston (one of the first such
schools in the country) and the
Rachel-McMullen Open-Air Nurs-
ery School in London, England.
She has taught at the Ruggle St.
Nursery School, and also in the
Euthenics Department at Vassar.
She has also worked in the neuro-
logical department nt Children’s
Hospital as a nursery teacher spe-
cializing in psychological testing of
children. For many years Mrs.
Andon has been head of the pre-
school department of the Church
School at Old South Church. It is
a privilege to have the benefit of
her instruction nnd experience.
Mrs. Warren Hunt leads the class
in primary department methods
and both new and more experienced
teachers are finding fresh inspir-
ation and workable ideas for use in
their own Church classes. Mrs.
Hunt is a graduate of Wheelock
College. Her husband is rector of
St. John’s Episcopal Church in
Jamaica Plain and she is Super-
intendent of the primary depart-
ment in that Church. Teachers not
yet enrolled in the school may still
join these two classes, or the class-
es for work with older children and
find helpful suggestions for meet-
ing the needs and problems of their
boys and girls.
Dr. Forgey’s closing worship
“Portraits of Jesus” are continuing
to inspire and motivate those at-
tending the school. Come to the
Baptist Church at 7:45 for the next
three Monday evenings for the
Community School of Christian
Education.
LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS
A first-hand report on the Win-
chester school building program
will be the subject of the opening
general meeting of the League of
Women Voters, Wednesday, Octo-
ber 7th, at the home of Mrs. How-
ard Chidley, Myopia Hill. Speak-
ers will be Mr. William J. Speers,
Jr., chairman of the building com-
mittee for the Junior and Senior
High Schools, Mr. Joseph W. But-
ler, Jr., chairman of the Parkhurst
building committee, and Mr. Harry
V. Gilson, Superintendent of
Schools.
The school building program is
one of the community problems in
which the League has maintained
a continuing concern for some
years. Any woman who is inter-
ested in learning more about this
and other kinds of responsible par-
ticipation in government is invited
to call the League’s membership
chairman, Mrs. Thomas M. Hennes-
sey, at Winchester 6-2828.
The first League Board meeting
of the year was held on September
23, at the home of Mrs. Leonard
Mead. Many League members at-
tended the state-wide Fall Confer-
ence at Worcester on September
30. Mrs. William W. Davies, pres-
ident of the League conducted
the part of the conference on public
relations.
An orientation meeting, designed
to acquaint new and prospective
members with League activities
past and present, was held on Mon-
day evening, September 28, at the
home of Mrs. Wilbert E. Under-
wood, Ravenscroft road.
Bob Varey, in his “Ramblings”
sports column in last Friday’s Wo-
burn Times picked three out of
four, liking Concord over Winches-
ter, Amesbury over Marblehead
and Wakefield over Danvers. He
picked Winthrop to beat Swamp-
scott by a big score, and might have
had four for four, except that Win-
throp was playing Cambridge Latin
instead of Swampscott, and lost!
Still, how many of the experts pick
three out of four. Nice going, Bob!

MYSTIC STAFF COOK-OUT
The Mystic School staff and
guests: Mrs. Forte, Virginia
French, Tom McLean, Dick Raack,
Ed. Geary, and Harold Dover, went
to Lynn Beach Tuesday, the 22nd,
for a supper cook-out. It was clear,
cool and just right for cooking and
eating hot dogs, hamburgers, fried
onions, tossed and potato salads,
cake and delicious hot coffee.
Gladys Woods and Margaret Milli-
can organized and did the cooking
with the help of the men-folks as
well as others.
After eating there were two
games of horseshoes, which finished
by moonlight. That full moon com-
ing up over the ocean was very
beautiful.
This was the first “fun get-to-
gether” of the school year. Several
more plans for good times during
the year are under way. It is a
pleasant way to relax and get to
know one another outside of school.

METHODIST
SPIRITUAL LIFE MISSION
The Crawford Memorial Method-
ist Church is making final plans for
its Spiritual Life Mission, which be-
gins next Tuesday evening at 8
p. m. Services will also be held
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
at the same hour and the final ser-
vice will take place the following
Sunday, which is being designated
as Family Sunday. The Mission is
for the purpose of deepening the
Christian life experience.
The church feels its responsibi-
lity in nurturing the Christian life
and this special emphasis is de-
signed to help the church in this
work with the active, inactive, and
casual members.
It has been said that we must
form spiritual habits or our souls
will die. The observance of Holy
Habits in one’s life has become a
necessity, if one is to survive the
corrosive forces of our times. Fath-
ers and mothers should not fail to
see the tremendous value in train-
ing the child to develop Holy Ha-
bits, especially with juvenile delin-
quency at a new high.
Members of the church and
friends of the community interested
in these special meetings are wel-
come to attend.
Special stress is being placed
upon family devotions, grace be-
fore meals, prayer life, church life
and other important habits of the
Christian life.
Discussions will follow each ser-
vice and Rev. Maxfield will be avail-
able for personal interviews or
counseling.

year, Mrs. Reynolds sends the fol-
lowing message to its members and
to the friends of the Republican
Party:
“People are prone to be lax be-
tween elections, but may we remind
you what a task it was to get the
elephant on his feet and moving
for 1952. Don’t let us all lapse
into our typical apathy again.
This club is a working organiz-
ation, educationally and financially.
It is for your benefit. It is to have
meetings that keep the Winchester
women informed so that they can
be an accurate source of intelligent
information on the activities of the
Republican Administration, on both
State and National levels. By
knowing the facts and aims of our
Republican leaders, the meetings
ran better promote the interests of
the party.”

HARRIERS EDGE WOBURN
27 TO 28
The traditional clash between
I Winchester and Woburn cross
I country teams Inst Friday resulted
in a torrid race with the Red and
Black edging Woburn by the nar-
rowest margin in recent years.
The locals traveled to Woburn to
race an always dangerous Woburn
team. The long haul started with
37 runners breaking away to a fast
start on the long and rugged Wo-
burn course.
The three top Orange and Black
men, Glenville, McDonald and
Dineen, took over the lead at the
start and gradually pulled out well
ahead at the midway mark.
After the second half of the race
began Lou Farrell and Captain
John Becker began to challenge the
leading trio and on the long down
hill drop moved ahead to the one
and two positions and proceeded to
increase their lead to a substantial
margin.
In the la9t half mile Lou opened
up, despite the fact he was still
taped up from an injury incurred
a week ago, and came on to win in
the fastest time ever run on the
Woburn course, 15m 24s. Becker
closed fast for a strong second but
then Woburn runners took the next
four spots and the race was in
doubt until a strong finish by
Borggaard, Bob Becker and Hank
Morgan in 7th, 8th and 9th positions
brought victory to Winchester.
The JV team showed excellent
balance as they swept the first five
places to score a 15 to 44 victory.
Charlie Govostes landed the num-
ber one spot.
An informal race preceded the
main event in which several fresh-
man runners from each school took
part. The race was won by a Wo-
burn runner but several Winches-
ter boys showed promise for the
future led by Dauphinais who fin-
ished in 3rd place.
First 10 varsity finishers:

WINCHESTER AT WMTHROP
Winchester High journeys to
Winthrop Saturday for its annual
football game with Winthrop High
School, commencing at the unholy
hour of 1:30. Local fans will do
well to take off betimes, if
they want to arrive at the Beach
City in time to enjoy the thrill of
the kickoff wih F. M. Raymie Hay-
ward, who holds strong views about
being present and decently seated
when the pigskin soars aloft at the
opening whistle.
Winchester ought to be an even
money choice to win this one, after
the Indians’ showing against
Watertown last week-end, b u t
thinking back to Concord, it is still
well to remember that this year’s
team is very green nnd as such un-
predictable. The boys will have to
improve on their Concord showing
to beat any one, but as they played
against Watertown, mistakes, nnd
all, there arc no teams remaining
on the schedule that should be odds-
on favorites to scalp the Indians.
Winthrop isn’t as strong as last
year, nnd it is just as well, for the
team that ran up 28 points on Win-
chester in a losing game cause in
1952 would be too good for this
year’s eleven at this stage of its
development. Winchester played
its best ball of the season against
Winthrop last year.
The Beach Towners have lost
both their games to date, to Cam-
bridge Latin, 13-6, and to powerful
Amesbury, 28-6.
Coach Knowlton will probably
field the same team that started
against Watertown, and is by no
means holding Winthrop cheaply.
Winchester has generally had tho,
dickens of a scrap with Winthrop,
even though winning a majority of
its games from the boys by the sea-
shore. This year’s contest should
be no exception.
Don’t forget that starting hour,
1:30. That’s right, 1:30!

WINCHESTER TIED WATERTOWN
13-13
BALL ON VISITORS ONF. YARD
LINE AS GAME ENDED
Winchester tied Watertown, 13-
13, last Saturday afternoon as some
3.0C0 delighted or stunned parti-
sans of the two teams saw the In-
dians play the vaunted conquerors
of Class A Brockton into the ground
and have the ball at the visitors
one yard line, first and goal, as
time ran out.
The Indians well could have won
the game, provided the plays se-
lected by the second-guesscrs went
all right at the end of both halves
of a gruelling contest played in 90
degree heat. Many criticized Win-
chester for not taking to the air at
once when they had the ball just
outside the Watertown eleven,
second down, with only inches need-
ed for a first down.
Watertown had its defenses
jammed to stop the expected buck,
and a decently executed pass into
the end zone could hardly have
failed. After the game Quarter-
back Dave Pratt said he called for
the pass on second down, but a
fumble in the snapback from cen-
ter prevented the play and he then
went for the first down, Murphy
just bucking for the necessary
inches.
At this point Coach Knowlton
sent in Lindsey, a fast runner, for
a pitchout left. The speedy colored
boy nearly made it, being tackled
at the Watertown one. Just one
good block would have gotten him
into pay dirt and meant the ball
game.
Again at the end of the first half
the Indians put on a thrilling goal
line stand after Joe Bellino saved
a sure-fire touchdown with the div-
ing clutch that just spilled Gergo-
dian from behind, after the speedy
Watertown co-captain had sped
from the Winchester 49 down the
field past every one.
Gergodian sprawled to earth in-
side the Winchester 10, and from
there the Scarlet in three tries
reached the two. Big Frank Basile
tried to buck for the touchdown,
but the Winchester line smothered
the try and the Indians took over
just outside the one yard line.
Pratt broke through on a sneak
for five, but the eagle eye of Ref-
eree Hawkes detected a hack il-
legally in motion on the play and
the bull went back to less than a
yard from the goal line. Murphy
got about a foot and on second
down Pratt called for a kick, Bel-
lino getting away a short boot that
Basile ran back less than five yards
to the Winchester 20.
With time running out, Hill hit
Basile with a pass in the right flat,
the receiver being wrestled outside
by Pratt at the Winchester three,
stopping the clock. Once again
Hill faded and passed, this time to
LoPrete who made the catch in the
end zone with no one near him.
Mastrangelo’s try for the extra
point from placement just snuck
over.
That tied the game and many
fans critizised the Indian strategy
of kicking on second down, claim-
ing that with only 28 seconds to
play they should have rushed at
least three times in an attempt to
run out the half before giving up
the ball. Of course the poor kick

from the end zone helps make this
strategy look even better.
Winchester made nine first downs
to eight for Watertown, rushing
for 166 yards to 221 for the Scarlet.
The Indians completed two of six
passes for 62 yards and a touch-
down while Watertown made two
of eight passes good, also including
a successful touchdown pass. The
visitors were penalized once for
five yards and fumbled once. Win-
chester lost 30 yards in very costly
penalties and recovered its only
fumble.
The Indians showed questionable
judgment toward the end of the
third quarter when Bellino got off
a kick from the Watertown 39 into
the end zone. The Scarlet was off-
side on the play, but Winchester
elected to let the kick stand and
the ball went in play at the Water-
town 20, the Scarlet advancing to
its 43.
Here Hill attempted a sneak left,
but was forced back toward his goal
line where he fumbled as he was
brought down. The ball trickled
away from him as he was hit and

was recovered by Winchester at the
Watertown 29. Linesman Wenner
gave the recovery to the Indians,
but Referee Hawkes over ruled him
and gave the ball to Watertown,
claiming the Scarlet player’s knee
hit the ground while he had pos-
session of the ball.
Watertown kicked to Bellino who
got back from his own 30 to the
Watertown 46. Murphy bucked for
a yard and O’Brien added another
on an end around play. Bellino
then drove to the Watertown 35 for
the first down and after Haggerty
had been stopped, hit off tackle for
5. Then on a pitchout Bellino real-
ly banged outside and down the
side lines, being forced out of
bounds at the Watertown 4.
Murphy picked up a yard or two,
but a clear Watertown offside was
called by two of the officials. Once
again Referee Hawkes overruled
his fellow officials’ decision and
penalized Winchester for drawing
Watertown off side.
This put the ball back on the
nine, first and goal. Bellino picked
‘ up two and then big Mike Murphy
on a veer buck left powered over
for the touchdown. Rotundi kicked
the goal from placement with a
high kick right through there,
Lindsey holding.
Watertown’s equalizer came just
at the half as told above, and with
the resumption of play in the third
quarter both teams made first
downs before Watertown had to
kick.
Bellino ran the kick back to bis
22 and three plays later got away
from his 25 to the 40 and first down.
Haggerty picked up less than a
yard and Bellino added only two

off from his five to the Watertown
42, and on the next play Gergodian
on a sweep left, got away behind
good blocking around the Indians’
right Hank. Reversing his field
prettily, the little Scarlet speedster
pulled away from several tacklers
and once in the open easily outran
every one to the goal line.
With the score tied the try for
the extra point by Mastrangelo was
all important, and it was blocked
squarely by Captain Riordan, who
broke through the big Scarlet line
all alone to make the save.
What may have been a turning
point in the game came early in the
final quarter, when Winchester,
continuing a drive that commenced
before the teams changed goals
after the Watertown score in the
third quarter, advanced from its 35
to the Watertown 44.
Murphy picked up four, Bellino
failed to gain and a screen pass,
that properly executed could have
gone all the way, just failed to
make first down. With less than a
yard necessary for first down Pratt
was stopped on a sneak and Water-
town took over, the placing of the
ball deciding a very close decision.
The Scarlet had to kick and
Winchester started from its 32.
Bellino made a first down in two
tries but then with two minutes to
go, had to kick and got away a
beauty from midfield outside at the
Watertown five.
Hill sneaked for three and then
Basile got out to the 30. Here Hill,
trying for the win, took to the air
and Captain Riordan intercepted his
pass, getting back to the Water-
town 21, and nearly going all the
way.
Bellino drove through to just out-
side the eleven, inches short of first
down, setting the stage for the
possible touchdown pass that the
Indians didn’t try. The summary:

were forbidden to unload them or
to allow anybody else to do it. The
loss to the port of New York alone
was estimated at a million dolldrs

ienced; laborers who would like to
work, who needed the money to
support their families, didn’t dare
to cross the picket lines. Travelers
returning from abroad were oblig-
ed to sneak home by way of
Canada, a sorry spectacle, humil-
ating when our country exhibits to

The Selectmen’s announcement of
the special town meeting to con-
sider the appropriation of the
$190,000 as the town’s share of the
damages incurred by the construc-
tion of the overhead railroad tracks
through town and the diversionary
highway through the Skillings es-
tate, has posed the question of what
happens if the town, either at the
duly called meeting, or by referen-
dum after the meeting, refuses to
appropriate this money. The Star
usked Chairman Greer of the Se-
lectmen and he frankly said that
he did not know. The problem
then, he believes, would become the
State’s, and though Mr. Greer felt
that in view of action taken in con-
nection with the construction of
State highways, the Common-
wealth would have the authority to
proceed with the construction in
Winchester, he refused a predic-
tion of what its action would be if
Winchester should now indicate it
does not want the overhead. There
is no doubt that some of those who
have favored the great wall
through Winchester are now not so
sure they want it!
IH APPRECIATION
Consitution they promulgated liber-
ty and freedom, guaranteed to all.
The Consitution and the Bill of
Rights were the priceless gifts to
the people' from the minds of
patriots. How far have we de-
parted from the precepts and wis-
dom of the effulgent beacon they
raised for us, have our leaders be-
come cowards unworthy of their
heritage ?
“Give me liberty or give me
death,” said Patrick Henry. His
was the spirit of the patriots of
’76. Ill-equipped, ragged, and half-
starved, they never faltered,
fought on to the glorious victory
of Yorktown, giving us the bless-
ings of liberty and freedom. Shall
we let them down? As affairs are
proceeding today, we may not long
continue to sing with the old-time
fervor, “My country ’tis of thee,
sweet land of liberty.”

FLOWERS APPRECIATED
Editor of the Star:
May I share, by means of your
column, a letter which I have re-
cent] y received ? Winchester
flowers contributed to the Fruit and
Flower Mission this summer were
distributed through the South End
House and the Norfolk House Cen-
tre in Boston. The director of the
Children’s Program at Norfolk
House writes in part —
“I have delivered the flowers my-
self this summer with the eager
help of some of our children, and
have been amazed at the pleasure
one bouquet can give to an old per-
son, convalescent, or a mother in
our neighborhood. I might add too
that the children on our playground
ask at 6 minute intervals on Tues-
days, “Are the flowers here yet”
and go proudly off the playground,
sometimes bearing only three or
four petunias. So thank you, we
hope you’ll continue to lie ‘‘our back
yard gardens.”
This letter is especially intended
as an individual thanks to each per-
son who has contributed so gen-
erously to the work of the Flower
Mission during this past season. I
have expressed my gratitude to the
weekly chairmen. Miss Hattie
Snow and Mr. Charles Forester
have fatihfully contributed flowers
each week. The Baggage Master
at the Station has been equally
faithful in his handling of the
hampers.
Despite the dry gardens, we have
had many other people who have
experienced the lift that an early
morning jaunt to the station with
a small bouquot can give to one’s
Editor of the Star:
In the October 2nd issue of the
Winchester Star, the Selectmen
have given notice of a Public Hear-
ing on October 15 to discuss the
land-taking on account of the pro-
posed Grade Crossing elimination.
This Public Hearing precedes the
Special Town Meeting called for
October 22 to vote on this item.
This article of October 2 dis-
closed the estimated cost of the
railroad project plus the cost to the
Town of Winchester for its part
(land-taking in the amount of
$190,000.
The Selectmen also state that
later a Town Meeting is to be held
on the school construction project
which no doubt will call for a siz-
able appropriation. These two
projects would boost our tax rate \
to a point as yet not known. Edu-
cation and school buildings are more
important than the inconvenience
of delay at the present railroad
crossing. Schools should come
first.
It is hoped that careful consider-
ation will be given by all tax-pay-
ers and it is very important that
they attend this hearing to be held
Thursday evening, October 15, at
7:45 o’clock at the Town Hall to
learn what the over-all cost will be.
While the estimated cost of the
railroad project is $6,000,000 it is
doubtful if a bid can be obtained
within this amount. In any event,
the raising of the tracks is an ill-
conceived project and at a cost to
the State and the Town that is not
justified.
from the bow is the main super-
structure the top deck of which is
the Chart Room and Bridge. Im-
mediately below this is the Boat
Deck. In the middle of this are
the Captain’s quarters consisting
of Office, large Lounge and Cabin
and Bath. On either side of the
Captain’s quarters are two en-
closed verandahs immediately un-
der the open Bridge. A life boat on
either side still leaves plenty of
open deck space.
Below the Boat Deck forward are
three fair sized rooms. A Smoker,
Lounge and Dining Room, the
latter seating six in all. Imme-
diately aft of the Dining Saloon
is the Owner’s Suite which we oc-
cupy and the Guest Room, both
with private bathrooms complete.
(You see this ship was not meant
to carry passengers but the owner
had built into it quarters in which
he and his family could travel as on
their private yacht.) On the other
side of this deck are cabins for the
senior officers, each with bath.
On the main deck below are more
cabins, rooms for the officers, an-
other for the crew and the Officers’
Lounge. Near the stern on this
same deck is *a deck house where
lives the crew. Every man has his
own individual cabin. There’s a
bunk in each one, of course, and in
addition a chair and desk and
ample lockers for the men’s better
clothes. (A separate locker room
is provided for their working
clothes.) There’s two rooms here
with showers, etc. There’s a laun-
dry with electric washing machine,
irons, etc. which the men can use
whenever they want. And there is
a game and reading room for them.
There they play cards and chess
and enter Radio Chess Tourna-
ments with other ships. Do you
see now why the crew seems a
j happy lot of men ?
Yesterday I went below decks
with the Chief Engineer to see the
Engine Room because the Captain
and Chief Engineer, having seen
this ship grow from the keel up,
are immensely proud of it as they
have every right to be.
The ship is driven by Diesel
engine of seven cylinders. Each
cylinder is about 25-inch bore with
50-inch stroke. The maximum
speed of the ship is about 15 knots.
And that is enough for cargo ships
because while a few can do up to
20 knots, the North Atlantic is such
that it is not often wise to try to
go so fast.
Well, the Engine Room is a mar-
vel of planning. Here, too, of
course, are the electric generators
which have to be ample to supply

should represent at the Special
Town Meeting on October 22.

schools and education should come
first.

LINCOLN SCHOOL HEWS
The Mothers’ Association of Lin-
coln School had its Fall meeting of
the year on Wednesday, September
30, in the school auditorium. Each
of the teachers was introduced to
the group by their principal, Miss
Cunningham, who also gave a short
talk on the extreme importance of
parent-teacher cooperation for chil-
dren in the early grades. Our new
Superintendent of Schools, Harry
V. Gilson, was given a hearty wel-
come on his initial visit to the
group.
Mrs. Kenneth Cullen, President!
of the Lincoln School Mothers’ As- j
sociation presided over the meet-
ing that followed where prelimin- 1
ary plans for the annual Hallo-
we’en Frolic were discussed. She !
introduce her Board Members as

ful first meeting of the year.
ing at once. There’s a
supplying heat for the ship and hot
fresh water for the baths. There
are condensers and oil filters and
air compressors and a multitude of
the auxiliary equipment all so
placed that the ship is kept on an
even keel, each one readily acces-
sible so that if necessary repairs
could be made at sea.
The Galley is on the main deck.
Immediately below is the store
room where the food is kept in
lockers and refrigerators. Not a
single bit of space in this ship is
wasted. The Galley (kitchen)
would delight any housekeeper.
Looking aft and therefore pro-
tected from spray, it has four
large windows over the counter
where food is prepared. Ordinary
cooking is done on a large old
burner stove. The oven is electric.
And here again is every needed
electric facility for mixing, paring
potatoes, etc.
To add to the beauty of the
cabins and general rooms of the
ship is the cabinet work. Instead
of painted steel partitions, the
walls are panelled in mahogany
nnd Circassian walnut. The work-
manship is of the best and the
furniture is uphosltered in fabrics
made on Swedish hand looms. It
just couldn’t be better on the Queen
Mary.
And now about what we do
aboard.
First of all, meals. The Captain,
Chief Engineer nnd we three pas-
sengers take meals together in the
Dining Room with a special
steward to wait table. The Cap-
tain suggested the following rou-
tinc.
Coffee at 7 to 7:30 (in your cabin
if you wanted it), breakfast nt
9:30, afternoon tea at 2:30 nnd din-
ner at 5:30. We could have had it
different if we wanted it but that
seemed a good plan. Each meal
lasts an hour to an hour-and-a-half
because they all begin with Smor-
gasbord and then a main course
which is different each meal. Rut
the time passes quickly for these
officers have been over much of the
globe, their English is perfect nnd
their tales of experiences are in-
teresting and full of new things
which we are hearing for the first
time.
Son after leaving port the Cap-
tain said “You may go on the
bridge whenever you wish”. So
we have the complete run of the
ship from top to main deck. The
weather for the most part, even
though it is February, has been
mild enough to spend much time on
deck. We’ve had a couple of days
when the roll was pretty had at
times but mostly it has been rea-
sonably calm and no one has been
uncomfortable.
One more reason why we take
freighters is this. When we booked
passage, it was from New York to
Genoa direct with no stops. As
can always be expected, we were a
couple of days late in sailing but
when we boarded the ship we
learned that we are stopping at
Oran in Algeria. Perhaps when we
get there we’ll find some additional
stops before we reach Genoa.
You see, it’s a sort of vagabond
voyage. It’s like having your own
yacht almost with the responsibil-
ity of ownership. The latter, how-
ever, has its compensations also
apparently. We learn that this
ship cost in Sweden about 1,500,000
— American! It’s been on the sea
but 10 months and it has already
pretty well paid for itself! Not a
bad return for some 1 responsibility.
110 West 35.26 North
I want to tell you some more
about this ship and the crew and
the cruise. Except for the second
nnd third days (this is the tenth
day and tomorrow early we should
he going through the Straits of Gi-
braltar) the weather has been com-
fortably warm and the sea unbe-
lievably smooth. Yesterday is was
glassy and almost looked as if oil
had been poured on it to keep it
quiet. We’ve seen porpoises dis-
porting alongside and twice we saw
turtles swimming alongside, trying
desperately to get further from the
ship’s side.
Saturday night the Captain and
his brother put on a moving picture
show of Swedish scenes with sound,
followed by pictures they had taken
of life aboard ship and pictures of
their homes nnd families. Inci-
dentally, they and the crew will
probably not get home for another
year. But while we were at dinner
yesterday, the radio man came to
the dining room to summon the
Captain and his brother, the Chief
Engineer, to the Radio Room. “I
have your family on the telephone
for you now, sir”. Every other
day they talk with those from
whom they are separated.
Last night after dinner, just be-
fore and after the change of watch,
they showed the films to the mem-
bers of the crew who gathered in
the lounge. One picture which in-
terested them mightily was a foot-
ball game between their own crew
and that of another Swedish
freighter when both were at Balti-
more. There is a regular Soccer
League to which all the Swedish
ships belong. Each ship has its
distinctive uniform and they are
very proud of their teams. There
are also tournaments for Ping
Pong and Chess and in the latter
this ship stands next to the top.
The Officers are all proud of their
crew. The Captain refers to them
as “Good Boys all”. Yesterday the
Chief Officer who speaks beautiful
English asked me “Does Peter
speak English to you?” (Peter is
the Saloon Steward about 21 years
old.) I answered that he spoke
little but seemed to understand
pretty well. ‘‘He should speak
English to you”, he said, “I am
teaching him English”. Then I
learned that the Chief is holding
regular classes for the crew in
English.
These boys all s?gn on Tor at
least a year and if you were on
deck this morning you could see
what a wonderful training they got.
The crew, including officers,
numbers 32. Except for leaving
port and entering port nnd in bad
weather the ship is steered by an
automatic pilot. That means that
a normal watch in good weather
consists of only four men. A mate
and one man on the bridge, an en-
gineer, and motor man. There arc
three watches so that leaves about
10 to 20 men who work an eight-
hour day hut no work on Sundnys.
Well, today they are mostly on
dock. Some are chipping paint,
other are using electric brushes to
clean the rust off while others
sweep very carefully before they
begin to paint. Upon the bridge
just now the carpenter and his
helper are putting in some cabinet
work. On the boat deck the elec-
trician is doing a welding job while
two others are puttering over an
engine room ventilator, a sort of
steel shutter to prevent the intake
of rain or spray. The Saloon nnd
Cabin steward is up on deck dry
cleaning the floor rugs. Everyone
seems to have his job and knows
what is expected of him.
A couple of days ago we sailed
through the Azores. We sighted
the island of Fayal about 4 p. m.
3500 feet high, it was topped in
clouds. Then the following morn-
ing we came in sight of the island
San Miguel. Somewhere between
the two about midnight the engines
stopped. Just a little something
didn’t sound right to the Chief En-
gineer so they stopped the engines.
In a couple of hours a minor part
had been made and installed and
everything was running smoothly
again.
The A 7 .ores are interesting. They
cover a much larger area than I
realized. Nearly 250,000 people
live on them. All of volcanic ori-
gin, they really stand up. San
Miguel has cliffs on the north side
at least that must rise from 400
to 600 feet out of the sea. There
on a slanting plateau we could see
villages all in white which seemed
to be \ to IVj miles apart. But in
between were deep ravines so that
I think it would be fairly arduous
to travel from one to another.
Above the cliffs and extending in-
land the land seemed to be terraced
to where the timber began. This
seemed to run clear to the top.
In the early morning sunlight,
the grey of the cliffs, the deep blue
of the ocean hacked up by the light
green of the fields and the shadows
in the ravines spotted with the
clusters of white houses made a
beautiful sight.
Mediterranean Sea
We arc now through the Straits
of Gibraltar. Early this morning
we first came in sight of the Spa-
nish coast as we passed Cape Tra-
falgar where Lord Nelson won
everlasting fame. On the other
side we could see the North African
coast. Both coasts are rather high
and as we got further east and in
sight of Gibraltar, the highlands in
southern Spain the mountains rose
to about 3500 feet. Viewed from
the strait which here is not much
over 7 miles wide they loomed up
very impressively and right oppo-
site on the African coast there were
places where the cliffs must have
been at least 750 feet high.
The weather was pretty good, the

from which the usual view is shown.

’’Are Sin. Disensc, and Death Real?’* is
the challenging subject of the Lesson-Ser-
mon at Christian Science services Sunday.
Among selections to be rend from the
Bible will be vers a from the 21st chapter
of Revelation, including tin* following
pnsnnge :
“And God shnll wipe nwny all tears from
their eyes ; nnd there shall be no more
death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither
shnll there he any more pain: for the for-
mer things arc passed away” (verse 4>.
From "Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures” by Mary linker Eddy the
following explanatory parage will he read:
"This is Scriptural authority for con-
cluding thnt such a recognition of being is,
nnd has been, possible to men in this
present state of existence — thnt we ran
become conscious, here nnd now. of a ces-
sation of death, sorrow, and pain" (573:23-
27 >.
The Golden Test is from Psalms:
"God be merciful unto us, nnd bless us ;
nnd enuse his face to shine upon us ; that
thy way mny be known upon earth, thy
suving health among all nations” (67:1,2).

Although for the Inst eight years
Korea has been a land divided, until
hnlf a century ago it was one of
the world’s most independent,
homogeneous and stable nations.
When the industrial north was
split from the agricultural south by
the 38th-parallel division in 1945,
Korea’s economic life line - — ex-
change of power, lumber, minerals
and paper from the north for
south-grown rice — was severed.
Since that time, neither region has
been able to benefit from its re-
sources.
A narrow mountainous penin-
sula, Korea stretches 660 miles
south of the Manchurian border be-
tween the Yellow Sea and the
Japan Sea to within 110 miles of
Kyushu, Japan’s southernmost
island. The country covers 85,250
square miles, about one and one
half times the size of Florida,
which it roughly resembles in
shape, says the National Geogra-
phic Society.
Rich In Power, Minerals
Before World War II, Korean
industry — concentrated mainly in
the north — was larger than that
of either Mexico or Turkey. Its
hydroelectric potential was estim-
ated at 5 million kilowatts, more
than the 1937 electrical output of
either Italy or France.
The land is known to hold highly
strategic mineral reserves, largest
in the Far East outside Manchuria.
Fifteen years ago Korea produced
about one-third of the world’s
graphite. Gold production ran as
high ns $50 million a year. Coal
reserves are well over 1 Ms billion
tons, and the iron ore reserve is
estimated at more than a billion
tons.
But despite its industrial poten-
tial, four-fifths of Korea’s people
are farmers, committed to rice
agriculture on the fertile mountain
slopes. In 1940, the nation was the
world’s fourth largest rice pro-
ducer.
Korea also ranked third in the
world in commercial fishing in 1939.
Some 75 kinds of edible fish are
found along its 11,000-mile coast-
line, where warm and cold currents
meet. The country has 10 major
all-weather ports, 29 secondary
ones, and 139 other off-shore an-
chorages.
Ancient Heritage
Korea’s legendary history goes
back about 4,000 years. Its inde-
pendent kingdoms were well known
to the Chinese 3,000 years ago.
From an early base of imported
Chinese culture, the Koreans devel-
oped an individual civilization with
a separate language. Nicknamed
the "Irish of the Orient” because
of their spirited, independent na-
ture, they have been engaged in a
tragic struggle for freedom, unity
and independence for half a cen-
tury.
A "hermit” nation during most
of the 19th century when communi-
cation with the rest of the world
was discouraged, the country was
claimed as a protectorate by the
Japanese in 1905. Five years later
it was annexed into the Japanese
Empire, and its name changed to
Chosen, which means, ironically,
“Land of the Morning Calm.”
In 1919 Korean nationalists
staged a "passive revolution.” A
republic-in-exile was established
under the presidency of Dr. Syng-
man Rheo. In 1948, the Rhee gov-
ernment was recognized by the
United Nations, although the
northern half remained under Rus-
sian domination.
In 1950, Korea’s population was
just under 30 million, ranking 12th
in the world, with two-thirds of
the populace in the area south of
the 38th parallel.
During the war, an estimated 1
million in the southern zone were
killed and another million perma-
nently injured. North Korea is re-
ported to have lost over 1% mil-
lion.
According to the Korean dele-
gation to the United Nations, at
least 1,200 of the nation’s 5,000
villages have been wiped out, nnd
52 — all but 3 — of the major
cities critically damaged. The
homeless and refugees in South
Korea alone may number 8 million.
A city of parks and palaces
where 40 years ago was only a tiny
fishing village on a pestilential
swamp, Casablanca is one of the
fastest growing cities in North
Africa, the National Geographic
Society reports. Capitalizing on a
man-made harbor, the Moroccan
metropolis is now estimated at
more than half a million inhabi-
tants. American ex-GI’s are
among the flood of business men
who have come to Casablanca since
World War II to establish new en-
terprises in an ancient land.

GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES
AND BRIEFS
Until the atomic era, uranium
was merely a byproduct of radium
nnd- vanadium miqes, useful for
coloring glass, pottery, nnd arti-
ficial teeth.
Seashore sand nt Rcppu in Jnpnn
is black, hot to the touch, nnd gives
off sulphur fumes. Thousands of
people go there to lie for hours,
even days, covered by the pulverise
ed volcanic debris, which they hope
will cure their ailments, the Na-
tional Geographic Society says.
Trior to June, 1950, when the
war began, Korea ranked twelfth
among conntries of the world in
population, with some 30 million
inhabitants, the National Geogra-
phic Society points out.
The largest glacier in Colorado,
the mile-square Arnpnho ice sheet,
is the water reservoir for the city
of Boulder, which owns exclusive
rights to the ice.
Cricket fighting is a national
pastime in China, nnd records of
celebrated fighters arc kept like
those of race horses >in other coun-
tries, says the National Geographic
Society. Weighed in before every

One economical way to build prestige is
to pay all your obligations with checks
of this h.ink. The people who receive
your checks know th.it the checks arc as
good as cash — and safer to send through
the mail.
Then, too, when occasion requires, you
can give this hank as a reference. One
of the unseen dividends from a check-
ing account is the increased prestige ye;'
acquire in paying by check.

the destruction of your

Sensible property

They make fire prevention
a day-by-day habit. They

from financial loss by in-

hibits which are well worth seeing.

WINCHESTER CHILDREN
REPRESENTED
Four paintings by Winchester
boys and girls are included in the
very interesting collection on view
at the Library until October 19.
This group of self-portraits is part
of a collection submitted by chil-
dren of 57 countries at the invita-
tion of the International Youth
Library of Munich. Various sec-
tions of the results are now on tour
throughout the world.
Adelaide Pittaway Sproul of
Shady Hill School, Cambridge,
pointed out that the paintings
showed a remarkable similarity in
technique as well as a universal
quality; and that except in a few
cases the paintings were not ap-
parently much conditioned by their
country of origin.
The corner cases in the gallery
were charmingly arranged by Mrs.
Gretchen H. West who created an
autumn mood and used a humorous
approach to things children enjoy.
At its opening meeting, members
of the Winchester Art Association
were reminded to bring examples
of their work to the Library Gal-
lery on October 16 for a Members’
Show to be exhibited from October
19 to 28.
Refreshments were served by
Mrs. Richard Wyman as hostess
and her committee which included
Mrs. Fred Abbe, Mrs. Charles Ab-
bott, Mrs. Blanche Barnard and
Mrs. Waldo Lyon.

tractive gifts.

On tlu* KLM Super Constella-
tion flight from Neu York Satur-
day, J. F. McGrath, Jr., of the Me
grnth Travel Service, Woburn, left
for a five-weeks four of Europe.
He is a delegate to the Internation-
al Congress of the American Soci-
ety of Travel Agents being held in
Rome the end of October.
His first stop in Europe will be
made in Amsterdam, and from Am-
sterdam he will plane to Berlin,
where for a week he will visit the
Western Sector ami also cross over
into the Eastern Sector behind tlu
Iron Curtain, which sector is a part
of Berlin proper.
He and several other travel
agents have been invited by the
Yugoslavian government to make
a two- weeks tour of this interesting
country so that they may encour-
age American travelers to visit
there. Before World War 1, the
country which is now Yugoslavia
was six countries, Slovenia, Croa-
tia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Herzego-
vina and Serbia. After World War
I, these countries were all incor-
porated into Yugoslavia, and until
recently, when the United States
resumed diplomatic relations with
Yugoslavia, they were behind the
Iron Curtain as satellites of Rus-
sia. It is exceptionally interesting
there, with many of the customs
of the old countries, and reflects
the civilizations of many of the
Mediterranean countries such as
Egypt, Turkey, Greece and the Ro-
man Empire.
Besides the overland tour in
Yugoslavia, the delegation will
take one of the Dalmatian coastline
steamers which call at many of the
seashore resorts in this section. The
group will be entertained by the
Yugoslavian Tourist Bureau, a gov-
ernment organization, and will
meet Tito, who is at the present
time ruler of Yugoslavia.
After two weeks in Yugoslavia,
Mr. McGrath will proceed to Rome

MURIEL GETS A WRITE UP
Winchester readers of last Sun-
day’s Boston Globe were interested
in Jo Anne Robbins’ special article
on Mrs. J. Stanley Barnes of Ginn
road, Muriel to all who know her
and the first woman ever to be ap-
pointed deputy insurance commis-
sioner of Massachusetts.
Much of the information in the
article is familiar to readers of the
Star, who were, however, interested
in what Mrs. Barnes’ new job with
the state is. She is one of five dep-
uty commissioners nnd heads the
Policy Approval Division handling
life, health and accident forms ap-
proving policies written in com-
pliance with the statute.
It was also interesting to learn
she embarked in business through
answering a Globe want ad 12
years ago during the serious ill-
ness of her husband. She is today
well known in insurance circles,
having her own business as well as
acting as a special agent (again the
first woman to hold the job) for
one of the large insurance compa-
nies, traveling through the state
contacting insurance brokers and
agents.
Mrs. Barnes studied dramatic art
and stage presentation at New
England Conservatory and has been
active in local and state Republican
circles as well as in the activities
of the Civil Defense. She likes sail-
ing, fishing and flying, and it was
news to us that she had taken up
a plane, though she hasn’t yet
landed one. Her knowledge of sea-
manship, learned from her father,
enabled her to be of real value to
sister passengers on a beleaguered
yacht forced back from Nantucket
to Falmouth Harbor by a severe
storm.

UNITED CHURCH CANVASS
A very enthusiastic and well-at-
tended meeting of the committee
handling this project met at the
office of the First Congregational
Church last Thursday to discuss
their plans for the third annual
United Church Canvass campaign.
A spirit of Christian comrade-
ship in our community is especially
strong among us this year, since
we are joined by the Church of the
Epiphany as a seventh member,
and more especially since II of the
7 ministers of our United group
are new to Winchester this year.
Sunday, November 15, is Loyalty
Sunday, and on or before that date
you will be asked to make your
1!>54 church pledge. As a United
Canvass group, our objective is to
combine our strength so as to do a
more effective job than could bo
done by each church working sep-
arately.
Our needs and opportunities are
greater this year than ever before,
and church members are urged to
support this movement.

S pecial Favorite of the Ladies !
When a Cadillac comes into the service of a family
that has never owned one before, it is — quite natu-
rally— a source of great pride and happiness to the
entire family group.
But we have noticed, through the years, that the
car is a very special favorite with the ladies . For,
most assuredly, a Cadillac does some very wonderful
and extraordinary things for a lady.
First of all, she looks her loveliest when she is
seated behind its wheel. Every time she takes to the
highway, she finds herself the focal point in a per-
fectly gorgeous picture.
And she feels just as wonderful as she looks.
The car’s deep, luxurious cushions cradle her in
magnificent comfort throughout the longest journey.
The great responsiveness of the quiet, powerful engine
gives her a marvelous sense of command. The car
steers and brakes and drives with such miraculous
ease that she actually rests and relaxes as she rides.
Of course, there are a great many other satisfac-
tions which a lady finds in a new Cadillac car.
There is, for instance, her delight at seeing her
family surrounded with every comfort and safeguard
known to the science of motor car design. And there
is the deep and rewarding sense of fulfillment which
comes with ownership of such a prized and sought-
after possession. Fven parked in her driveway, the
car is a tribute to her good taste and judgment . . .
and a wonderful complement to the beauty and
graciousness of her home.
To any gentleman reeiding this advertisement—
we would like to make a suggestion:
Some day soon— when the sky is bright and the
time is right— ask your lady if she wouldn’t like to
take a ride in a 1953 Cadillac.
We think we know what the answer will be — and
we’ll be happy to sec you, indeed.

A record crowd of about 95 peo-
ple had a completely good time at
the Snipe Dinner Sunday night.
Each year enthusiasm for snipe
racing just about doubles — and
this summer there were twenty-
four registered boats in the snipe
fleet with no less than a dozen
turning out for each race. After
a yummy turkey dinner with all the
fixin’s, skillfully cooked by the
Broders, the meeting was taken
over by Carl Freyer, captain of this
year’s fleet. He introduced the
other fleet officers: Pete Redding,
first mate, who is going into the
Army October 21: and Jim New-
man, purser. Also at the head
table were Commodore Fitzpatrick
from the Medford Boat Club and
the other Medford fleet officers.
Much credit was also extended to
Bol) Huggins, chairman of the Win-
chester race committee, who has
done all the point tallying this sea-
son.
Announced as fleet officers for
next summer were Walter Redding,
captain; Bob Hall, first mate; and
Jim Snow, purser.
Jim Snow, long-standing snipe
sailor, handed out the trophies. Top
honors in the Junior Point Score
Series went to Tom Legere. His
close competition, in order, includ-
ed Windy Freyer, Peter Mont-
miny, John Day, and Peter Freyer.
Tom Legere again carried away
top honors in the Series A of the
Point Score Races. A close second
was Jim Newman, with Bob Hug-
gins third. Jim Newman was vic-
tor in Series B, with Carl Freyer
second, and Bob Anderson third.
In Series C, Dawson Blamire col-
lected the trophy for first place,
with Bart Sullivan second, and
John Duy third.
Bob Huggins, winner of the
whole point score series, was re-
cipient of the George Jones Trophy.
He claims the secret of his success
is the excellent crewing of his wife.
Jim Newman was the runner-up,
with Tom Legere in third place.
Winners of the Directors’ Handi-
cap Trophy Series were Bob Ander-
son, Spike Larson, and Dawson
Blamire, respectively.
A plaque made by George Jones
was presented to Jim Snow, who
earned first place in the Alden
Sherman Trophy Series, which end-
ed last weekend. Darla Hall, Dann
Lewis, and Bob Anderson claimed
second, third, and fourth places
respectively.
Mementoes of the snipe fleet
were received by the three faithful
race judges, Ann Blamire, Stan
Gardiner, and Boh Hall.
Dave Reynolds of Medford Boat
Club presented the Medford-Win-
chester Interclub Cup to Carl
Freyer, captain of the fleet, and
vowed that Medford would give
Winchester a good fight next year.
The three female skippers of the
snipe fleet, Barbara Fitts, Letty
Harmon, and Darla Hall, were
thoroughly teased in a skit made
up of Carl Freyer, Arthur Schmidt,
and Leonard Mead. All of the script
was cleverly written by Carl
Freyer.
Excellent colored movies of sail-
ing, swimming, and clambakes
which occurred during the summer
were shown by Bob Hall, who real-
ly knows how to take pictures.

WHITE SPOT RESTAURANT DESTROYED BY FIRE
Photo by Bernio Murvin
A fire broke out in the cellar of
the famous dining place, The White
Spot, at Four Corners, Woburn, on
Sunday afternoon, October 11th, at
about 4 p. m.
There were about fifty patrons
seated at tables at the time. They
accepted the announcement of “fire”
and ventured to vacate. Suddenly
the flames leaped through the inlets
of the air-conditioning system and
billows of smoke reared from the
basement stairs.
Then there was mild panic and
the patrons fled, some leaving their
wraps and handbags. The employ-
ees of the White Spot. who were on
duty were obliged to leave the
building in their working attire,
leaving their belongings behind.
The spectacular blaze caused a
general alarm summoning fire-
fighters, apparatus and police from
surrounding towns, Winchester be-
ing among those responding.
The White Spot has been a fa-
vorite eating place for many Win-
chester people for the past twenty-
eight years.
The owner, Mr. Francis “Nick”
Chase, who lives at 54 Salisbury
street, plans to rebuild.

powered a rugged Winthrop team
by the one-sided score of 31 to 6 at
Miller Field, in Winthrop, before a
crowd of two thousand thriU-seck-
ers, who, in spite of the score, got
their money’s worth of thrills from
long touchdown runs, last-ditch
tackles which saved touchdowns,
goal-line stands, and a gecond half
starred by twenty forward passes,
eleven of which were completed by
Winthrop’s TardifT and one of
which resulted in a touchdown for
Winchester.
In spite of the score, from the
spectator’s point of view the game
was a real thriller. Actually Win-
throp out-ranked Winchester in
first downs, 15 to 13, although
many of the 13 were made at the
expense of the Winchester Seconds
and Thirds, who played a good
part of the game and who were
better offensively than defensively.
TardifT, of Winthrop, thrilled the
crowd in the second half by uncork-
ing a highly effective passing
game, completing eleven passes out
of eighteen tries, only one of which
was intercepted. Perhaps if Win-
throp had taken to the air earlier
in the game, the result might have
been different. However, Winches-
ter has two good passers in Pratt
and Lindsey, neither of whom was

forced to resort to passing, with
the ground game clicking consis-
tently throughout the contest.
Tnkin the opening kickoff on the
23 yard line, Mick Murphy lugged
the ball to the 33, and then drove
through center for four yards more
on first down. On the second play
of the game, Joe Bellino, taking a
pitchout from Dave Pratt and be-
hind some perfect blocking by Mur-
phy swept 63 yards for a touch-
down. From that point on Win-
chester controlled the game, al-
though* Donovan of Winthrop found
holes through both guards for
drive after drive of ten or twelve
yards until he was removed from
the game finally, a tired and
shaken player. Winchester won’t
meet any better ball carrier of the
line-bucking type than Mr. Don-
ovan of Winthrop.
For Winchester, Joe Bellino
played the type of game which has
been prophesied for him from the
start of the season, reeling off two
long touchdown runs of 63 and 57
yards respectively behind fine
blocking, and other runs of 29, 23,
and 16 yards, two of which were
stopped by last-minute tackles to
prevent his going all the way. Mike
Murphy played his best game so
far and in addition to throwing
decisive blocks for Bellino and
Haggerty revealed surprising abil-
ity on two or three end sweeps
which could have scored touch-
downs if Mike had been able to put
on speed after shaking off a couple
of tacklers. Dave Rotundi, playing
at fullback for half the game, was
outstanding on backing up the line
and reeled off one run of 53 yards.
His kick-offs, however, were per-
haps his most spectacular contribu-
tion, consistently reaching the
Winthrop safety man near the goal
line. It would be impossible to
identify all the boys who played
good football against Winthrop.
Roth Lindsey and Ross, replacing
Pratt as quarterback, handled their
jobs with efficiency and Ross twice
ran hack punts for long yardage,
while Lindsey scored on a fine dash
around end and passed for another
score to O’Brien with a well execut-
ed jump pass over the line.
The quarter-backing of both
teams was outstanding in clever
handling of the hall and in decep-
tion. Captain John Riordnn, hack-
ing up the line for Winchester, was
in the Winthrop hnckfield all after-
noon and on one occasion saved a
scoring threat by throwing the
dangerous Mr. Donovan for a three
yard loss on the Winchester three
yard line.
Those who watched Winchester
at Concord in the first gnme of the
season wouldn’t recognize the
smoothly working, hard - hitting
aggregation which represents the
Red and Rlack today. Without any
question they have found them-
selves and beginning with the stop-
ping of the highly touted Water-
town steam-roller, they served no-
tice that they are again on the war-
path and playing for keeps. Right
now, their most dangerous future
opponents appear to be Melrose and
Wakefield. Melrose looks ns if
they had once again risen from de-
feat to become nn outstanding foot-
ball team, trouncing Malden last
week 26 to 6! And Wnkefield has
yet to taste defeat. This doesn’t
mean that Winchester is overlook-
ing the game next week at Stone-
ham. Not by any means, because
for the past several years it has
been Stoneham, regardless of their
previous record, that has given
Winchester one of the toughest
games of the season. So it’s on to
Stoneham next Saturday.
Winchester won the toss and
elected to receive, Winthrop choos-
ing to kick with the wind. The
kickoff went to Mike Murphy on
Winchester’s 23 yard line and
Murph carried back to the 33.
Murphy made four yards through
left guard on the first play from
scrimmage and on the next play,
Bellino took a pass out from Pratt
and behind some fine blocking by
Murphy skirted right end and went
63 yards for the touchdown. On
the try for point after, the pass
was high and Lindsey ran for the
far comer and scored the extra
point easily.
Winchester kicked off to Gaynor
on the Winthrop 32, who ran it
hack to the 45. TardifT made 4
through tackle. Donovan drove for

3 through center. An incomplete
pass was nearly intercepted by
Murphy. On 4th down, Donovan on
a delayed pass drove through cen-
ter to the Winchester 48 for a 1st
down. Bellino stopped a wide end
run for no gain and on second down
Streeter was thrown for an 8 yard
loss. Donovan made 1 yard
through center and on the punt
Winchester was off-side. On the
second attempt Donovan punted to
the Winchester 10, where the hall
hit the ground in the midst of three
Winthrop forwards, hut Bellino
snatched the hall and carried to the
39, with one man between him and
another score.
Haggerty made 4 through tackle,
but a 15 yard penalty put the hall
hack to the 34. Murphy made 9
through right tackle to the 43. On
third down Bellino duplicated the
run he made on the second play of
this game, with the same good
blocking, going 67 yards around
right end for the touchdown. The
try for point after was wide.
Riordan kicked off to Donovan
on his 30 and the big fullback drove
back to the Winchester 40 yard
line. TardifT passed to Streeter for
7 yards. Streeter made five more
through left tackle for a first down
on Winchester’s 28. Donovan bull-
ed through center for 9 yards and
Streeter made a first down on Win-
chester’s 14 yard line. From a
spread formation TardifT passed to
Donovan for 4 yards to the 10.
Donovan mudo four through center
to the six. In two bucks at the
center of the line Donovan made a
first down on the four yard line.
On the next play Riordan threw
Donovan for a 3 yard loss. Streeter
made 1 yard through center and
the quarter ended with Winthrop on
Winchester’s 5 yard line, third
down and goal to go. Streeter
made 1 through center and then on
4th down Donovan scored. The try
for point after was blocked and
Winchester led 13 to 6.
Winthrop kicked off to O’Brien
who was stopped in his tracks on j
the 37 yard line. Murphy swept
right end for 29 yards shaking off
several tacklers and all but getting
into the clear. With the ball on
Winthrop’s 35, Haggerty swept,
left end for 18 yards to the 17.
Bellino whirled through inside
tackle for 9 yards to the 8 and
Murphy skirted left end for a first
down on the 3. A back in motion
on the next play placed the ball on
the 8, but Murphy on the next play
scored easily. One again the try
for point after went wide and Win-
chester led by the score of 19 to 6.
With the second team replacing
the varsity, Rotundi kicked to Don-
ovan on the 10 and made the tackle
on the 19 yard line. Winthrop
fumbled on a spread formation play
and Winchester recovered on the
20. McLaughlin made 13 on an
end run for first down on the 7.
Morgan was stopped at the line of
scrimmage, but on 2nd down Lind-
sey scampered round right end for
a touchdown. A poor pass pre-
vented the point after. Score:
Winchester 25, Winthrop 6.
Rotundi kicked to Streeter on the
goal line and he drove back to the
25. Donovan made 2 on a lino buck.
TardifT passed to Streeter for a
first down on the 36. An incom-
plete pass and two line bucks made
only 3 yards. On 4th down Win-
trop punted to Ross on Winches-
ter’s 20 and with good blocking
ahead of him Ross lugged it to the
Winthrop 29. On the play a 15
yard penalty on Winthrop placed
the hall on the 14. On the next
play Winthrop recovered n fumble
on the 13.
In 4 plays Winthrop rolled up
three first downs against the scrubs
to the Winchester 42. An incom-
plete pass combined with a 15 yard
penalty on Winchester for rough-
ness put the hall on the 27. Don-
ovan ploughed through the center
of the line to the 15 and the half
ended with Winthrop threatening.
Score: Winchester 26, Winthrop 6.
Rotundi kicked off to Connolly at
the 12 and he ran the kick hack to I
the 33. Donovan made 9 through letf
guard. TardifT made 3 for first
down on the 45. TardifT was held
for no gain hut on second down
Donovan drove 19 yards to Win-
chester’s 40. On the same play
Donovan was held to 1 yard. Tar-
diff made 1 to the 38. TardifT pass-
ed to Streeter for a first down on
the 39. Again TardifT passed to
Donovan on the 25. An incomplete
pass was followed by two attempts
by Donovan to make a first down
through the center of the line and
Winchester took over on the 20.
On first down Rotundi on a quick
opening got into the clear and ran
53 yards to the Winthrop 27. Hag-
gerty made 4 and Winchester
Seconds came hack into the game.
McLaughlin was thrown for a 7
yard loss. An incomplete pass was
followed by a bad pass on 4th down
which drove McLaughlin hack to
the 41, where he managed to fall
on the loose ball. With Winthrop
taking over Coach Knowlton sent
in the varsity to relieve the Seconds
and Streeter was held for no gain,
hut a 15 yard penalty on Winches-
ter put the ball on the 49. After
an incomplete pass, Winchester in-
tercepted the next attempt through
the air and took the ball on their 30
yard line. Rotundi drove for a first
down on the 42, Haggerty made 1.
Bellino carried to the 4 for a first
down. On the next play Winthrop
recovered a fumble on the 5. In
three plays, with Donovan out of
the lineup Winthrop lost 3 yards
and the quarter ended with Win-
throp in possession of the ball, 4th
down on their 2 yard line. Win-

Ross ran it hack to the 25.
Rotundi drove for 7 on the 18.
J. Murphy made a first down on the
15. Rimhack picked up 2 yards.

the 35. TardifT passed to Streeter
to the 44 and a first down. TardifT

other first down on Winchester’s 45.
A pass to Donovan netted 3 yards

ball on the 37. Donovan drove for a
first down on the 34. An incomplete
pass was followed by two success-
ful short passes totaling 9 yards
and Donovan failed to make the
one yard needed for a first down.
Bellino made 8 yards to the 33
and Winthrop was penalized five
yards for off-side. Pratt made 3
on a quarter-back end run. Bel-
lino made 5 through tackle. Pratt

over the head of the receiver and

on Winthrop’s 32. Bellino was hurt
on the play and had to leave the
game. On second down, Lindsey,
who had replaced Pratt hit O’Brien
with a jump pass over the line and
O’Brien raced the rest of the dis-
tance without a hand being laid on
him. The try for point after failed

RECEIVES PATENT
Lloyd R. McIntosh of Winches-
ter, Mass., was the recipient on
September 22, 1963, of U. S. Patent
No. 2,663,207, entitled “Filament
Emission Electrode and Method Of
Minimizing Filament Stresses
Therein”.
In many applications of X-ray
and cathode-ray tubes, in which
streams of electrons are emitted
from a cathode, it is desirable to
have such electrons come from a
point source. This may be accom-
plished by bending the filament,
which constitutes the cathode, into
a hairpin shape so that when an
electric current flows through it,
nearly all of the electrons, emitted
thereby, originate from or at the
very small area of the apex of the
filament.
These filaments are preferably of
tungsten and in the order of one-
hundredth of an inch thick; and
they expand and contract each time
they are heated to emission tem-
perature and then cooled. Conse-
quently, they are subjected to
stresses which may cause them to
break at any point along their
length.
To cope with this situation and
provide an improvement over the
prior practice, Mr. McIntosh has
discovered that this tendency to
breakage may he reduced very sub-
stantially by farming a loop pre-
ferably in each arm of the filament
and desirably very close to the
apex thereof. Best results may he
obtained by locating each loop at a
distance of not more than one-
eighth of an inch from the apex
and constructing it with an inside
diameter of forty to sixty thou-
sandths of an inch.
It should be noted also that, as
another advantageous feature of
his invention, Mr. McIntosh pro-
vides a means to prevent jarring of
the filament and to prevent molten
glass from appearing on it when
glass is used in the parts or con-
nections between the load-in wires
and the filament itself.
This patent lias been assigned to
High Voltage Engineering Corpor-
ation, Cambridge, Mass.

SECOND GRADE TEA
CENTENNIAL OF THE
BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY
Editor of the Star:
Recent publicity concerning the
centennial of the Boston Public
Library and the plans for its de-
velopment and expansion have
brought forth many interesting
comments. Among the most heart-
ening are those from men and wo-
men who have a particular feeling
of warmth and friendship toward
the library because of the part it
has played in the development of
their own lives and their business
or professional careers.
Many of these people are well
known to us, and we are proud that
this library has contributed to their
intellectual well-being and to their
success. However, throughout this
city, the commonwealth, and the
nation there must he many others
who have found the Boston Public
Library a source of inspiration and
help.
It occurs to us that as pail of the
observance of the 100th anniver-
sary of this country’s first great
circulating library an “alumni as-
sociation” might he formed. For , r ^ A ...
this purpose we have particularly . • f ^ • Auxiliary 3 1 19 will hold
in mind the men and women who, | dance ?Y c !?i n S’

the mothers on the planned pro-
gram of the second grade and the
differences in the type of program
in the first and second grades. Thp
minimum requirements expected in
arithmetic and writing were stated,
and the formal report cards were
explained. The mothers had an op-
portunity to talk with the teuchers,
Mrs. Eisenstadt and Miss Cogs-
well.
Mrs. John F. Coakley, president
of the Mothers’ Association, and
Mrs. Andrew Sinclair poured at the
attractively decorated tea table.
Arrangements for the tea were
made by Mrs. John Wile and Mrs.
Frank W. Dreyer, the room moth-
ers, assisted by their committee,
Mrs. Louis Errico, Mrs. Edwin Mar-
shall, Mrs. James J. Russo, Mrs.
John C. Bertolucci and Mrs. Philip

Last Friday the local runners
entertained Revere in the only
home meet of the yenr. The Rod
and Black won by a score of 20 to
44 with Lou Farrell racing to a new
course record in the fast time of
16:36 which smashed the old record,
also held by Farrell, by 12 seconds.
The visitors, strengthened by the
addition of two runners not with
the squad in their early races, offer-
ed only fair opposition to the home
cluU. The race got off to a fast
start and at the halfway point Lou
had only about a 35 yard lead on
Zani of Revere with John Becker
in third about 10 yards hack. In
the second half of the race the Win-
chester runners really poured on
the speed as Farrell crossed the
line in record time while Captain
Becker moved into second to finish
20 seconds behind Lou nnd record
his best time for the course. Zani
of the visitors pulled into third and
Dick Borggaard, running his best
race to date, finished a strong
fourth. Veteran Hank Morgan
took 6th despite a tough chest
cramp and Larry Tullberg, steadily
improving Sophomore, was the last
Winchester scorer in 7th.
Other local runners showed real
improvement in their time for the
rugged two and one half mile
course. These were Bob Becker in
8th, Boh Smith in 10th, John Mc-
Carthy, 14th and Bert Kneeland,
16th. It should he noted that these
runners are all Sophomores.

BADMINTON CLUB OPENS SEASON
The badminton season was ush-
ered in very successfully this week
with sizeable and highly enthusi-
astic turnouts Tuesday and Thurs-
day evenings at the high school
g.vm.
All three courts were kept busy
from the starting time of 7:30 p.m.
and for the major portion of the
evening, os the players, regulars
and newcomers, joined together to
launch the new season happily.
President Larry Palmer ‘ was
pleased at the appearance of so
many new faces and wishes to re-
mind others interested in this fine
sport they are welcome to join the
Badminton Club. There is no obli-
gation for the first visit.
S. 0. I. BOWLING LEAGUE
Off we go again with plenty of
new faces in the line up. The
tranquil hoys of Soft Ball fnme
and the usual old timers got off on
schedule, on a swing shift system
of 7 to 9 p. m. nnd 9 to 11 p. m. at
the Swanton Street Alleys.
We have some very good howlers
this year and it should be very in-
teresting to see who will finish on
top for high average. I wish to
mention some of the “dignitaries”
nnd “Men of World Fnme” who are
howling this year.
We have Snraco M. D., “Mingy”
Frongillo, “Ben” Gillotti, “Chick”
Vespucci, “Moose” Bellino, “Hokic”
John “C” Bertolucci, Joe Tofuri,
and Richie Riga just to mention a
few.
Opening night, Wednesday, Oc-
tober 7, many of the boys got off
to a good jump, with many dnrk
horses setting the pace for the
champs.

the evening:

Titled “Boston, Dogpatch and Li’l

hack of the leaflet includes a spe-
cial message from Winchester
Campaign Chairman, Arthur W.
Pratt.

ton United Red Feather Campaign
.Sunday, November 1.
High Triple went to M. J. Snraco
with a 316 and High Single went
to “Carlo” Bertolucci with a 124.
We were told only one complaint
was issued to the Assistant Com-
missioner of Bowling Randy, the
Head Boss being “Bull Dozer”
Frongillo who takes care of the
real trouble.
“The Gypsy” was there again
for the quarters for chances on
Bowling night as usual. The
chances were gone in a flash and
the winner was announced and
guess who? Lucky “Chick” Ves-
pucci again.
In closing, we were led to be-
livc the gentlemen that were howl-
ing could not be heard on the out-
side of the sound proof building!

CLOSING SESSION
OF COMMUNITY SCHOOL
The final session of Winchester’s
Community School of Christian
Education will he held next Mon-
day evening, October 19, in the
First Baptist Church at 7:45. All
interested persons will want to at-
tend the wind-up of this excellent
series of classes.
In the Nursery and Kindergarten
class, Mrs. Andon is planning to
demonstrate and discuss worship
and music as used with the very
youngest children.
Mrs. Hunt, in the class for teach-
ers of Primary children is planning
to take up the important matter of
parent-teacher relationships, and
worship. Summaries of the other
sessions will conclude this course.
Activities for Juniors — various
types of creative activities such as
writing of psalms and stories,
hand-work and the use of pictures
— will he described in Miss Boyd’s
class on methods with Juniors.
Miss Strieker, teacher of the
class for Junior High methods, asks
that each person bring a copy of
the text book be is now using in bis
Church School and a general dis-
cussion of teaching materials will
he hold.
Rev. Edmund Nutting and Dr.
Barbara Kimball will be complet-
ing their excellent series in the two
courses: Church School Planning;
and Parents and the Teen-ager.
The school has been fortunate to
have these very able lenders and en-
thusiastic reports are heard of the
values gained from these courses.
Dr. Forgey closes his remarkable
and inspirational “portraits” of
Jesus with his talk on “A Portrait
in Oils”, namely the Gospel accord-
ing to St. John. The Gospel of St.
Mark, to Dr. Forgey, is a “Candid
Camera” view of Jesus, the gospel
of the present. The Gospel accord-
ing to St. Matthew is the “Family
Album” picture, the gospel of the
past. St. Luke gives us a “Posed
Photograph”, a carefully selected
picture of the life of the Master,
and the gospel of the future. St.
John has the artistry of an oil
painting, and is called the gospel of
eternity. Through these “por-
traits”,’ Dr. Forgey has clarified
our understanding, challenged our
thinking, and inspired our living,
both as parents and teachers.
NOONAN SCHOOL NEWS

School Mothers’ Association was

sented Mrs. Carleton Bolivar, past

hurricane lamps on behalf of the
association.
A complete roster of room moth-
ers was announced by Mrs. Paul
Avakian, chairman of the room
mothers.
A very interesting and enlighten-
ing talk was given by Mrs. Neil
Borden of the Scholarship Founda-
tion giving the mothers a history
and the purpose of the Foundation.
Miss Eleanor Shinniek, a repre-
sentative of the Girl Scouts, then
spoke on the Scout program and
asked for leaders in the school.
Miss Lenore Rich, principal, wel-
comed all the mothers and spoke
on the school program, after which
she introduced each member of the
teaching staff. Each teacher was
presented with a corsage from the
association.
Miss Lenore Rich and Mrs. Carle-
ton Bolivar poured at a delicious
collation served by the social com-
mittee headed by Mrs. Arthur Col-
lins and Mrs. James Flaherty.

with tributes of praise nnd ap-
E lauae last Friday evening when a

WINCHESTER MORNINGS
FIRST LECTURE
Speaking at the first Winchester
Morning on October 8th, Mr. John
Allan May of the Christian Science
Monitor said we have reached a
critical, perhaps an historical mo-
ment of modern times.
Discussing the conflict between
Russia and the Western World, he
outlined what he considered the
strength and weakness of the Rus-
sian empire. Russia’s strength
lies in its possession of the hydro-
gen bomb. Despite the tendency of
the press to ridicule the ability of
Russian scientists, evidence indi-
cates that they have succeeded in
producing a hydrogen bomb nnd
have commenced to stockpile
atomic weapons. Recently there
have been many signs of growing
weakness and insecurity within the
Soviet empire. On the death of
Stalin, there was no man of like
stature to replace him. Added
evidence of dissatisfaction within
the state is suggested by such in-
cidents as the disappearance of
Beria, whom Mr. May referred to
as “an international flying saucer,”
the escape from behind the iron
curtain of Polish and North Korean
flyers, disturbances throughout the
satellite colonies, and the uprising
in Eastern Germany.
Mr. May feels that the time is
now ripe, while there are still
people living in the Soviet empire
who are able to remember what
freedom means, for all freedom
loving people to take the initiative
in the struggle against Commu-
nism. He believes, as Winston
Churchill has suggested, that the
West should take steps to call a
conference to # negotiate assurances
between Russia and the Western
Allies. While Russia might be
anxious to avoid such a showdown,
Mr. May feels that it will help the
allied cause, and restore the West’s
dwindling prestige in the Asiatic
countries. On the whole he felt
that the western powers were mov-
ing in the right direction.
In closing, Mr. May, an English-
man, stressed that the American
alliance is of the utmost impor-
tance to the British, and urged that
we do not mistake their divergence
of opinion for criticism. He reiter-
ated that our strongest weapon is
love of freedom, and that we must
show it all over the world.
The second of the Mornings se-
ries, sponsored by the Winchester
Wellesley Club, will take place on
Thursday, October 29th, when Mr.
Carl Wood, Jr., will give a program
of American Folksongs.

MINIMUM RATE FOR
Coin Telephone Calls
First Increase in 70 Years
Effective on Wednesday, October 14th, the minimum rate for calls from
New England Telephone Company coin telephones in Massachusetts became
10ff, in accordance with authorization by the Department of Public Utilities.
This is the first increase in the minimum rate in Massachusetts’ coin
telephone history . Only calls within the present btf. calling area will be
affected by the change. C .alls that are a dime today will continue to be a dime.
Thus, the new 10^ calling area will include both the present 5 $ and 10(J areas.
Costs of Providing Service
Up Sharply
The costs of providing telephone
service have increased sharply dur-
ing the past few years. Since higher
schedules of telephone rates have
been found necessary to meet these
higher costs, it seems only fair that
users of coin telephone service
should bear their share of the
increase.
Most Coin Telephones
Have 101 Rate
A l(ty initial rate is already effec-
tive or authorized for 83% of Bell
System coin telephones. Applica-
tions have been filed for an addi-
tional 6%.
Please Read The
Instruction Cards >
At each dial coin telephone, you
will find instruction cards showing
exactly how to call from that tele-
phone, and a list of the outside lo-
calities that may be reached by
dialing.
If the receiver is replaced after a
single nickel >has been inserted , the
coin will be returned.

Qualit y Proves It!
Performance Proves It!
IVicc IVmesIt !
Be hard to please when you compare auto-
mobiles— and you will be pleased with
Pontiac. Quality shows up in Pontiac wher-
ever you look: In size — with its lonfc, road-
leveling 122-inch wheelbase . . . unmatched
at the price! In beauty — with smart Silver
Streak styling and surprising luxury. In
the unseen quality of engine and chassis-
features that are revealed in the long,
economical life Pontiac cars always deliver.
This one’s easy! Simply come in and drive a
Pontiac. You'll feel the eager response of America’s
best-proved high-compression engine. You’ll see
how Pontiac’s power reserve supplies all the pep
you’ll ever need and provides a velvety smoothness
that makes highway driving a pleasure. With
Pontiac dependability, you can go on and on like
this— with an absolute minimum of service. So
don’t settle for less than the pleasure of Pontiac
performance when it costs so little!
Pontiac offers you all of this extra value
at a price just a few dollars above the
smallest, Unvest -priced cars! And when
it comes to resale value, Pontiac ranks
with the leaders year-in and year-out.
That’s our final reason why, dollar for
dollar, you can’t beat a Pontiac. Now
come in and give quality, performance
and price a chance to prove that
Pontiac’s the best buy —for you, too!

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS
Winchester’s prospective Senior
High School was advertised for
contractors’ bids on October 8, Mr.
William J. Speers, Jr., chairman of
the school building committee told
members of the League of Women
Voters at their opening meeting on
October 7. Emphasizing that there
has been no material change in the
plans as they were presented to
Town Meeting last spring, Mr.
Speers reported that bids will be
opened on November 5 and that the
special Town Meeting on the school
appropriation will probably be held
the week of November 9.
With the building plans as they
are and have been, the committee
estimates that a portion of the
structure can be ready in time for
the opening of school in September
1954. Mr. Speers explained further
that plans for remodeling the old
high school building must be de-
layed until completion of the new
High School.
The League also heard Mr.
Joseph W. Butler, Jr., chairman of
the Parkhurst school building com-
mittee, who reported that his com-
mittee lias not reached a decision
between building a new school or
adding to the present one. Mr.
Butler emphasized the need of more
than temporary relief, since the
rate of population growth in the
area served by the Parkhurst
school shows that seven additional
j rooms would be almost full as early
as 1961.
Mr. Harry V. Gilson, new super-
intendent of schools, paid tribute to
the chairmen of the school commit-
tee and of the building committees.
He pointed out that it would be im-
possible to buy the hours of devoted
service of the quality that these
citizens have given.
Mrs. William W. Davies presided
over the meeting which was held at
the home of Mrs. Howard Chidley.
Mrs. Wilbert E. Underwood pre-
sented the proposed revision of by-
laws, designed to bring the Win-
chester League up-to-date to con-
form with the national League of
Women Voters procedure.

ident in charge of unit meeting, an-

WINCHESTER RED FEATHER
CAMPAIGN WELL UNDER WAY
BUTTERS APPOINTED
CADDY COUNSELOR
Arthur E. Butters, head of the
mathematics department of the
Winchester High School and long-
time member of the Winchester
Country Club, has been appointed
the first official counselor to the
Francis Ouimet caddy scholars,
sponsored by the Massachusetts
Golf Association. The appointment
was announced by T. Edmund Gar-
rity of Winchester, president of the
scholarship foundation, at the an-
nual directors' meeting held at the
Weston Golf Club last week.
The Massachusetts association,
composed of 12,000 members, is
the second largest group of its kind
in the United States. It contributed
more than $14,000 this year to en-
able caddies to attend colleges of
their choice. The first recipients of
these scholarships graduated from
college last June; and, at present,
the association is aiding 70 boys in
college, 22 of them freshmen.
Grants are made for one year at
a time, renewals being dependent
upon demonstrated success, but so
far there has never been a failure.
Last summer Mr. Butters assist-
ed in interviewing candidates for
this year’s scholarships, all of
whom had been screened by a com-
mittee headed by Dean Rollins of
the Harvard Business School. As
counselor to the caddy scholars,
Mr. Butters will contact every one
of the first-year class to discuss
marks and financial problems. He
will also be available for consulta-
tion with upper classlnen.
HOWARD APPOINTED MANAGER
OF TRUCKING CONCERN
Mr. Paul W. Howard, who joined
Hartford Despatch & Warehouse
Company in April 1940, has been
appointed Manager of the Com-
pany’s Boston Terminal at 28 Trav-
is street, Allston, effective October
1st.
Hartford Despatch & Warehouse
Company operates regular truck-
ing service between Boston and
Southern New England points. The
Company has public warehouses at
Springfield, Hartford and Bridge-
port and is also a member of Allied
Van Lines, Inc.
Mr. Howard lives at 6 Blind
Bridge street, with his wife and
two children. He is a member of
the Traffic Club of New England.
He served 3 V*» years in the U. S.
Navy during World War II.
MARINE HERO'S
FUNERAL MONDAY
The 1954 Winchester Red Feath-
er Campaign is well under way, ac-
cording to Mr. Arthur W. Pratt,
Winchester Campaign Chairman.
There are approximately 050 Win-
chester people volunteering their
time and effort in the various
phases of this United Community
| Drive. On October 17, advance so-
licitation workers started their
tasks; retail solicitation will start I
on October 29; and the big residen- j
tial drive in Winchester will com-
mence on October 31 and will con-
tinue through November 8.
Winchester’s quota this year is
$59,800, which is 6 r /c higher than
the amount raised last year. This
quota is based on actual require-
ments of the 300 agencies includ-
ing the U. S. O. which are support-
ed by the Community Chest. If it
is not met, the participating or-
ganizations are handicapped in
their operations. "If we are to
maintain the health and social
levels of our community, we must
meet these modest goals,” said Mr.
Pratt. Winchester agencies which
receive direct financial aid from
Red Feather are the Boy Scouts,
the Girl Scouts, the Winchester
Hospital, the District Nursing As-
sociation, the Home for the Aged,
and the St. Vincent dc Paul So-
ciety.
The Winchester Hospital, the
Girl Scouts, and the District Nurs-
ing Association will have window
displays in Filene’s and Hevey’s in
the center during the last two
weeks of the campaign.
Much credit for helping start the
campaign so successfully goes to
the local Boy Scout Troop who de-
voted many hours last week end
to the work of distributing Red
Feather leaflets to Winchester res-
idents. They will continue to dis-
tribute this literature during the
coming week end.

about much that is accomplished
there, and described the routine of

At the close of the meeting, tea
was served and a social time en-
joyed.

(This lulvertiiunuiit wan niadr juibsible by Mr Trunk Mi'Leun)
The funeral of Lt. Robert G.
Herlihy, USMC., son of Command-
er John E. Herlihy, USX, retired,
and Mrs. Herlihy, of Hillside ave-
nue, will be held Monday morn-
ning, October 20, from the Mal-
luhy Funeral Home in Fitch-
burg, with a solemn requiem high
mass at St. Bernard’s Church,
Fitchburg, at 10 o’clock.
Lt. Herlihy was killed in action
in Korea, July 20, 1953. lie had
arrived in Korea only ten days pre-
vious, and moved into the front
lines with the First Marino Div-
ision shortly after his arrival. On
the last day of battle he was guard-
ing eleven of his wounded Marines
when he saw communist troops ap-
proaching.
Taking two of his men, Lt. Her-
lihy intrepidly advanced to attack
the red soldiers, and was killed pro.
tecting his own wounded men. He
has been recommended for the Sil-
ver Cross, third highest military
decoration.
Lt. Herlihy was born December
17, 1930, in the Symmes Arlington
Hospital, while his parents were
living in Winchester. Ilis father,
for many years a member of the
Navy Dental Corps, was assigned
to various naval bases and Lt. Her-
lihy’s early education was secured
in several preparatory schools in
continental United States.
He was graduated from Bulkley
High School in New London, Conn.,
in 1948, and went to the University
of Notre Dame, from which he was
graduated in the class of 1952.
While at Notre Dame he enlisted
in the Marines, and attended Pla-
toon Leaders School at Quantico,
receiving his lieutenant’s commis-
sion at the time he was graduated
from Notre Dame.
After further training at Quan-
tico, he was transferred to Camp
Pendleton in California, where in
May, 1953, he was ordered to join
the First Marine Division in Korea.
Lt. Herlihy’s parents are former
residents of Fitchburg. His father,
after retiring from the Navy, was
assistant director of Dental Health
for the Massachusetts State De-
partment of Public Health.
Besides his parents, Lt. Herlihy
is survived by a brother, John E.
Herlihy, a graduate of Notre Dame
in the class of 1945 and a former
lieutenant in the United States
Navy. Now living in New York,
he is advertising manager of the
Foreign Editions of News Week
Magazine.
OVERPASS HEARING
WELL ATTENDED
Last Thursday evening, a large
number of taxpayers attended the
meeting at the High School audi-
torium to see slides of the proposed
grade crossing elimination and by-
pass, and to ask questions about
the plun and its cost. Don S. Greer
of the Board of Selectmen present-
! ed the slides and explanation of
them, and Philip Wadsworth pre-
sided. The meeting had been called
by the Selectmen and Planning
Board — it was not a legislative
hearing nor a protest meeting —
and notices had been sent to nearly
200 people affected by the project
so that they might attend this
meeting.
There were seven slides, dia-
grams, and more are planned for
the town meeting this week. The
state will pay the cost of this ele-
vating the railroad tracks, estim-
ated at $6 million (including the
by-pass from Washington street,
across the Skillings estate, to up-
per Main street) and the town’s
share will be about $190,000 to be
taken from the Excess and Defi-
ciency Fund.
The audience last Thursday
night was about evenly divided be-
tween the men and women who
favored the elimination of the
crossing by means of the overhead
tracks, and those who felt the
project to be a serious detriment
to the town. Many of the listeners
were property owners near the
project, and were frankly worried
about its effect on their homes, on
valuations, and had many questions
to ask about it. Mr. Charles Rich-
ardson and Mr. Edward Barker of
the Worcester Company were pres-
ent to answer questions. They ex-
plained that the upheaval in Win-
chester Square, for this project,
would last about a year and a half.
The State has spent over $100,000
in preliminary studies on this plan.
Since the early discussion on the
overpass, there arc plans for the
by-pass, on which surveyors have
been working those past months. A
good many taxpayers in the au-
dience wondered if the by-pass
could be used if the tracks were
not raised. Mr. John Lathrop ask-
ed the question, and felt that the
by-pass would relieve the center of
much "through traffic” and might
be tried first.
Mrs. Alonzo Woodside asked what
the cost of this by-pass would be
apart from the over-all project,
and was told that the by-pass con-
struction was estimated at $750,000.

PARENTS TO SEE SAMPLE ROOM
AT W.H.S. OPEN HOUSE
CURLERS TO HAVE RINK
The Winchester Curlers are
about to realize their 25-year old
ambition, to have their own en-
closed artificial ice. Soon there
will be many bull-sessions amongst
the older Curlers about "when-wo-
used-to” shovel snow off of the
pond, scrape down the ice and then
buck the biting cold winds. All
that will soon be changed.
Work has started on a new Curl-
ing Rink at the Winchester Coun-
try Club. The building will be
about 170x50 feet and will be built
directly over the black-top foun-
dation put in by the Curlers sev-
eral years ago. They had hoped
then that there would be enough
natural ice if there were a shallow
water-tight foundation for flood-
ing. This did not work out, both
because of the mild winters lately
and the sun-effect on the ice.
For the past two winters, The
Country Club (Brookline) Curlers
have kindly loaned their ice one
night a week to a limited number
of Winchester Curlers and this has
greatly increased the interest of
other members who have tried it
once, or even watched it. Now the
grand game of Curling will be
available to all members.
Many of the older Curlers have
volunteered to act as instructors
for any interested members. Curl-
ing is perhaps one of the most
amateur sports there is — there
are just no Curling "Pros”. Curl-
ing by the Ladies will also he en-
couraged (there are many women
Curlers at the Country Club and
Nashua.) Comfortable seating will
be afforded "behind the glass” for
those wanting to watch.
Funds for the construction have
been raised largely amongst the
Curling group. The club is also
investing and the sport will be a
club operation. The present fine
restaurant and food at the club will
undoubtedly be greatly helped over
the usual dull winter months, if it
works out at Winchester as it has
at all other Country Clubs that
have added Curling as a winter
sport.
There are no golf clubs, tennis
racquets and such things to be
bought for Curling. Simply add a
sweater to your business clothes,
wear rubbers or rubber- soled shoes
and you are ready “to go” at an
indoor Curling Rink.
The Star will give frequent pro-
gress reports on the building, new
Curling members, committees and
of course the game results. The
ice is expected to be ready for oper-
ation early in January and prob-
ably can be kept up until early in
April, thus assuring a good Curling
season this winter.

November 14th at 2 p. m. Auxi-
liaries and their friends are in-
vited.
In observance of American Edu-
cation week Winchester High
School will bold Open House on
Thursday evening, Novembei 5.
Parents familiar with the routine
will be on band promptly at 7:30
p. m. for the brief home room
period to meet the home room
teacher and the room mother as
well as to hear the latest bulletin
regarding procedure.
Following the home room period,
parents will pass from class to
class as their sons and daughters
have already done on Thursday’s
schedule. Those in the Wadleigh
building will go to the High School
building for some classes, gym,
music, art, and so forth. Parents
of sophomores, juniors, and seniors
who have speech or who have elect-
ed printing, mechanical drawing,
bookkeeping, or business arithmetic
will go to the Wadleigh building
for those subjects.
During study halls the evening
school members may pay their
family dues, have refreshments in
the cafeteria served by the Parent-
Faculty ladies, visit Mr. Grindle in
the Principal’s office, or Mr. Dem-
sey and Miss Bernhoft in the Guid-
ance office.
Interesting displays in the li-
brary and the art studio will be
well worth seeing and will furnish
an opportunity to visit all parts of
the building. Many will take this
opportunity to see the so-called
sample room, number 13 on the first
floor, which effectively shows the
advantages of tile floor, sound re-
sistant ceiling, modem lighting,
new trends in school room decor-
ation, and movable furniture.
Room 13, renovated last year,
serves as a sample of the complete
renovation required for fitting out
the present senior high school
building in the event it is to he used
as a junior high school.
MONTHLY EVENING SERVICES
PLANNED
The church committee of the
Second Congregational Church de-
cided at its last meeting that there
was a need for a Sunday evening
service in their community. They
felt that the many who had to
work on Sunday would welcome
this opportunity of attending a
church service, even though it
would be only once a month. There-
fore, such a program will begin
this Sunday at 7:30 p. m.
The committee especially advised
that the main emphasis be upon
"informal fellowship” with a 15-
minute "Song Service.” Thus, there
will be an opportunity for the people
to select their favorite songs. Mr.
Skeirik, pastor, will give a brief
message from the book of Deute-
ronomy. This part of the service
will conclude at 8:00 p. m. so that
the remaining time can be used for
personal fellowship and entertain-
ment. This Sunday the entertain-
ment will be presented by Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Allen of West Med-
ford. They will present color slides
which they took on their trip to the
following gardens: the Cyprus
Gardens of Charleston, South
Carolina, and West Haven, Flor-
ida, and the Bellingrath Garden
near Mobile, Alabama.
If there is obvious support of
such a program the church will
continue it once a month through-
out the year.

Last year, First Raptist’s an-
nual fair was an outstanding suc-
cess, and this season’s fair, to be
held at the church on Saturday,
November 21st, promises to be the
biggest and best yet, with more in-
teresting booths and displays and
a wider variety of unusual and
worthwhile items for sale.
One of the outstanding attrac-
tions of the coming Harvest Fair
will be a Parcel Post Rooth featur-
ing fascinating gifts from far-
away places. Mailed back to Win-
chester this summer by vacationing
church members, the “surprise”
packages, still in their unbroken
parcel post wrappings, have travel-
ed from many different parts of the
country and even from foreign
lands.
Other colorful booths at the bap-
tist Fair will feature children’s
toys and gifts, food, aprons, grabs,
dolls, candy, plants, scout handi-
crafts, and jewelry. The popular
“Up-The-Attic-Stairs” display of
last year will he repeated again
this season with an oven wider se-
lection of “white elephants” and
other old or unusual articles. The
“General Store”, offering v just
about everything but the kitchen
sink, will ho another drawing card.
Starting at 10 a. m. on November
21st, and running all day and
through the evening, the program
will include a luncheon at noon and
a real New England baked bean
supper at 6:30. First Raptist’s
members, who are now busily mak-
ing and collecting the thousands of
items for their booths, hope that
their many Winchester friends will
plan to “come to the fair” on No-
vember 21st.

HARRIERS DEFEAT
MALDEN CATHOLIC
On Monclny the high school har-
riers, still smarting from a drub-
bing at the hands of Wellesley last
Friday, ran the Blue Jackets from
Malden Catholic into the ground
as they raced to an 18 to 45 victory
at the Tufts college course.
The Red and Rlack runners
moved out quickly at the start of
the ruce and at the mile mark pre-
sented a solid block of runners
broken only by Dunn of Malden
Catholic running well in the third
{ >osition. Farrell and Becker mov-
ng easily built up a solid lead and
coasted in one and two. In the
last half mile Bob Becker and Dick
Borggaard cut down Dunn’s lead
and might have taken him if the
race had been a bit longer. Charlie
Govostes and Larry Tullberg took
6th and 7th places to complete the
■coring for Winchester.
The W. H. S. varsity squad show-
ed 100' \ improvement over their
race against Wellesley and Everett
| Vocational last Friday. They are
now pointing toward the Pilgrim
Division Championship meet to be
held nt Essex Agricultural School,
Danvers, on October 23rd. Wake-
field and Wellesley rule as favorites
but the Red and Black are hoping
for one of their best days and they
are planning to make a last ditch
fight to retain their title. The in-
dividual championship looks to he
a three man fight between Schwarz
of Wakefield, C hapin of Wellesley
and Farrell of Winchester. Schwarz
holds a victory over both this sea-
son but both Chapin and Farrell
are looking for the upset.

POSTER CONTEST
Artists among the Sunday school
members in Winchester’s Protes-
tant churches are busy this week
competing for honors in the poster
contest. The posters are to publi-
cize Sunday, November 15th, as
“Loyalty Day” in the United
Church Canvass, which will be the
date when all church goers are con-
tacted for support.
The posters will be turned in on
Sunday, October 25th, and after
judging will be displayed in prom-
inent show-windows around the
town. Last year this contest arous-
ed considerable rivalry among the
participants and their productions
evoked favorable comment from
viewers.
The winners will bo announced
in next week’s Star. The theme for
“Loyalty Day” is “Your Church —
the greatest hope for the world.”
We rolled into the second week
of bowling. The enthusiasm the
hoys are showing this year is in-
comparable to any other year gone
by.
There were no complaints placed
before the commissioner this week
or to his assistant.
There was a great shuffle of the
top five bowlers this week as they
fell by the wayside and five new
names appear in the limelight.
The standing of the five top
bowlers is as follows:
Average
R. Riga, Jr. 105.8
B. Tofuri 104.2
F. DiMambro 104
A. Fiore 99.7
A. Tibaudo 99.2
The high single, the high triple
and the high average belongs to
one man, R. Riga, Jr.
There also was another record
broken which should receive recog-
nition. In looking through the
records of years gone by, no other
bowler equalled this record, let
alone broke it. The “Boss” bowled
174 for a three string total.
The Wednesday night raffle went
off on schedule. The winner was,
for a change, our good friend
“Arka” Amico.
We are expecting a greater show
of excitement and enthusiasm upon
the return to his Alma Mater
“of Wedding Bells Bob”.
Sec you next week.

Serving Winchester for over 17 Years
With their minds on Melrose and
Wakefield, both looming up as im-
mediate and dangerous threats,
Winchester’s football team played
well enough to win last Saturday
at Stoneham, although out-scored
in the second half by a scrappy
Stoneham team sparked by a cool-
headed quarterback in Saunders
and a very elusive halfback in
Lawrence, wearing No. 11 on his
hlue jersey.
If Winchester was playing under
wraps in view of the coming game
with Melrose this week, there may
have been some excuse for being
out-scored, if not out-played, by a
lighter team during the second half
of the game; for fumbling the ball
on key plays; for several sloppy
tackles; and for permitting young
Mr. Lawrence, who weighed pos-
sibly 145 pounds, to waltz through
their guards and tackles for sev-
eral important nine or ten-yard
journeys before being stopped by
the safety man; for being fooled
by a delayed forward pass two or
three times, on one of which only
a flying interception by Bellino
saved a touchdown.
We don’t mean to imply that
Winchester played a poor game of
football from whistle to whistle.
Actually there were several indiv-
idual contributions worth record-
ing and worth watching, such as
excellent blocking on end runs, per-
haps the best of which were fur-
nished by Dattilo and Bellino; the
recovery of four Stoneham fum-
bles, two by Cullen and two by Dat-
tilo; two interceptions of Stone-
ham passes by Murphy and Bellino
to stop dangerous drives; Mike
Murphy’s lmttering-ram drives in-
to the Stoneham hack-field (if Mike
would learn to use a straight-arm
against would-be tacklers, he could
go all the way and also save wear
and tear on his helmet).
While each team racked up 13
first downs, Winchester carried the
ball by land 235 yards to Stone-
ham’s 150. Out-weighed man for
man in both line and back-field,
Stoneham became air-minded, com-
pleting six out of 8 passes for
short distances, although missing
on three long scoring attempts.
While missing on three tries,
Winchester completed three for 28
yards, 9 yards, and 25 yards respec-
tively against a total of only 38
yards in six Stoneham aerials.
The game was marred by nine
fumbles, three by Winchester.
Possibly the loose hall was the re-
sult of hard tackling or hard-hit-
ting line play. At any rate, the
frequent fumbles added a spice of
excitement to an otherwise often-
times unexciting contest.
Winchester’s forward line out-
charged Stonehnm’s lighter line all
afternoon, but, as in the Winthrop
game of the previous week, delayed
bucks frequently found big holes
between guard and tackle for dan-
gerous drives by Stoncham’s left
halfback Lawrence, who was a hard
man to keep bottled up.
As the teams lined up for the
second half, with the score 20 to 0
in favor of Winchester, Stoneham
executed an onside kick which they
recovered on the Winchester 40
yard line largely because the Win-
chester end on that side of the field
was slow to grasp the situation.
From then on Stoneham drove
steadily to a score.
Winchester Seconds played more
during the first half than in the
second, largely due to the fact that
Stoneham was inspired by its first
score and was able to control the
ball a large part of the time.
The Red and Black should and
will he up for the game this week
at Melrose and will have to show a
much more consistent and wide-
awake defense than they showed
against Stoneham. Melrose has
one back that can go for the dis-
tance when he gets into the clear,
and the Wincheester line will he
forced to drive into the Melrose
backfield on every play to stop him.
Stoneham won the toss and elect-
ed to receive. Riordan kicked to
Lawrence on the 20 and the run-
back reached the 27 yard line.
Saunders passed to Dixon on first
down for eight yards. On the next
play Dixon made three yards
through left guard for a first down
on the 35 yard line. Saunders made
one at center and then passed to
Dixon for seven more. On third
down Dixon hit right tackle for two
yards and a first down on the 48.
Jimmy Cullen recovered a Stone-
ham fumble of the next play and
Winchester took over on Stone-
ham’s 44. Murphy made a yard
through tackle. Haggerty made
another through guard. On third
down Bellino whirled on a delayed
buck to the 34 and a first down.
Haggerty lost a yard at left end.
Murphy made five through center.
Murphy made one yard through
right tackle. Pratt passed to
O’Brien for a touchdown from the
28 yard line. Riordan kicked the
extra point. Score: Winchester 7,
Stoneham 0.
Riordan kicked to Dixon on the
five and the Stoneham back ran the
kickoff hack to the 22. On first
down Saunders passed to Lawrence
for six yards. Salera recovered a

kle and on second down Bellino
scored standing up on a delayed
buck. Riordan missed the point
after. Score: Winchester 13,

With several replacements in the
lineup, Winchester kicked-off to
Dixon on the five yard line. Dixon
ran the ball back well to the 37.
Dixon lost a yard nt left end, but
on second down Saunders passed to
Thompson for a first down on Win-
chester’s 42 yard line.
Dixon made seven yards through
the line. Steele lost four on a de-
layed buck and on third down
Saunders tried a long pass which
1 was intercepted on the fifteen yard
line by Bellino, saving a Stoneham
score and carrying the ball to the
35 yard line.
After recovering his own fumble
Pratt sent Murphy through center
and the big back hulled his way to
the Stoneham 45 for a first down.
On the next play Stoneham recov-
ered a fumble on their 46.
In spite of a five yard penalty on
Winchester for an off-side, Stone-
ham was unable to make the neces-
sary yardage for a first down and
punted to Pratt on the Winchester
47, where he was downed imme-
diately. The punt was short and
although Stoneham was off-side
Winchester refused the penalty
and took possession of the ball.
With the Seconds taking over here,
McLaughlin carried on first down
to the Stoneham 38 for a first down.
Making only four yards on three
plays, Winchester was forced to
punt. The pass from center was
over McLaughlin’s head and he fin-
ally fell on the ball on the 43 yard
line, where Stoneham took over,
only to fumble their chances away
on the second play, Dattilo recover-
ing on the Stoneham 48.
Bellino carried for five yards and
Piatt passed to O’Brien on the
Stoneham 34 for a first down. On
first down, Bellino, behind fine
blocking swept around right end
for a touchdown, neatly side-step-
ping two would-be tacklers. Ro-
tundi kicked the point after. Score:
Winchester 20, Stoneham 0.
Dixon took Rotundi’s kickoff on
the 10 and carried to the 31. Saun-
ders passed to Dixon on the 37 for
six yards. On second down Win-
chester recovered a fumble on the
38.
Rimbach made distance, but a
clipping penalty put the hall back
on the Stoneham 46, first down, 16
to go. Lindsey on a quarter-back
end run, reached the Stoneham 29
for a first down. Rimbach drove
off left tackle to the fifteen for an-
other first down. On a long pass
Lindsey overthrew his receiver and
the half ended.

MEMBERS' SHOW
The first meeting of the Noonan
School chapter of the Junior Red
Cross was hold recently, with the
entire school in attendance. To
open the program everyone joined
in the Pledge of Allegiance and in
the singing of the Star Spangled
Banner. Reports were read by Sec-
retary James Flaherty and Treas-
urer Patricia Parino.
Following these reports, ouch of
the room representatives was heard
from. Among these were Harry
Lindmark, Mary Dooly, Kevin Col-
lins, Alice Quigley, Kevin Cullen,
Lorraine Dewar, Marilyn Walsh,
Jean Lonigro, and Henry Cogan.
One of the most interesting parts
of the program was the talk by
Ronald Chabot on the subject,
“Why We Should Ciive to the Red
Cross.” Ronald said, “We should
| all be proud when we wear a lied
(.'ross button, for it means that we
have given something of ours to
help others less fortunate than
we are.”
At the conclusion of the regular
meeting, a program on Courtesy
was presented, with each of the
grades participating. William Hag-
gerty was the master of ceremo-
nies. Miss McAuley’s kindergart-
ners presented 10 proofs that they
are trying to be good citizens, while
those in Mrs. Gunderson’s class
told about the flag. Pupils in Mrs.
Mead’s Grade I showed how they
can be helpful around the building,
and Mrs. Hancock’s first graders
presented pictures and stories on
“How We Can Make Our Room a
Happy Place to Work and Play.”
the upper grades
As varied as the personalities in-
cluded in the Winchester Art Asso-
ciation are the abilities revealed in
the exhibition now in the Library
gallery. The traditional style is
represented in all the usual ways
except that none of the paintings
is “stuffy”; in competent land ; Children from
and seascapes, portraits, and ani- contributed original stories, songs,
mal studies done in the meticulous and courtesy rules. An original
manner usually associated with play, “Schoolroom Courtesy,” was
Chinese or Persian artists. Sev- j performed by members of Grade
oral members have contributed two 0.
canvasses, in each case showing)
versatility as to medium and sul>- j
ject.
Those paintings contemporary in
style are in a considerable minority
as to number but they concede mini stra tor of Winchester Hospi-

ration with the Harvard Business
Mr. Greer added that if the town
voted for the plan set forth by the
selectmen, and outlined in the war-
rant for the meeting October 22,
nnd if no referendum was asked
for, the selectmen would he em-
powered to continue negotiations
with the State and the State would
begin work immediately, starting
first work clearing the Railroad
area near Swanton street, and
building temporary trestles. The
Railroad would offer its materials
needed, Western Union and signal-
ling equipment would he moved,
and by Spring, contracts for work
would be awarded. The town is
asked for $190,000 — a sum the
Selectmen assured the audience
would be a guaranteed figure. In
the meantime, while the prelim-
inary building is going on, traffic
will have to be re-routed, and on
this subject, help will he asked
from the Traffic Department of the
State.
If the town does not vote to ac-
cept the plan or appropriate the
money requested, Mr. Greer made
it clear that the state could go
ahead with the plan, and assume
the entire financial burden.
Mr. H. G. Wagner asked if the
selectmen could estimate the defi-
nite loss in taxes that would incur
through land-taking, and Mr. Greer
said that would be brought up at
town meeting. That was a ques-
tion others in the audience had
also planned to ask, feeling that the
loss of taxable property, or any
property depreciation, would lie
felt by the town for years to come.
Dr. Milton Quinn brought up a
pertinent problem concerning sani
tation and while he contributed
some merriment to the meeting,
underlying his wit was a definite
question on the toilet facilities of
the trains passing through Win-
chester. Mr. A. J. Hewis brought
up another pertinent point, on what
plan the town has for any re-ar
rangement or disruption of town
services such as gas, light, wate
fire, and this question was promis-
ed an answer at a town meeting.
The question was also asked why
the overhead Railroad question was
being taken up by the town meet-
ing members before the question of
the schools, and how, if sums are
to be spent on the railroad, will
there be sufficient funds to start
much-needed work on the schools?
On this question of funds for
schools, Mr. Greer told the audience
that school money would have to be
raised by a bond issue. On this,
there was a murmur among the
parents in the audience, who hope
to see schools started as the town’s
No. 1 project.
THE MALE ANIMAL"
With football in the air and aca-
demic freedom in the news, the
Unitarian Players appropriately
present “The Male Animal,” by
James Thurbor and Elliott Nugent
on November 13 and 14.
This gay nnd winning comedy
seems even more timely in its
struggle of ultra-conservative cen-
sorship against liberal education
than when it was first presented by
the group in 1941. This perhaps
prompted its successful Broadway
! revival of last season. As for the
lighter vein, time has hardly al-
tered our interest in the war be-
tween the sexes, which Thurbor
has here transported from his
cartoons to the stage.
Refereeing these two struggles
as rehearsals progress is Dr. John
It. Woodruff, co-director of the
Tufts College Theatre and a resi-
dent of Winchester. His able
craftsmanship and active experi-
ence in the theatre ofTcr new stimu-
lus to the Players nnd their audi-
ence.
From his last role as the gum-
chewing, fast- working reporter in
"State of the Union,” . Bradford
Darling now turns absent-minded
professor as Tommy Turner, whose
life goes placidly along until a dis-
turbing ripple challenges his com-
posure, jeopardizes the sanctity of
liis home — and the reticent male
is transformed into a beast, fight-
ing for his mate. “The bull ele-
phant in him is aroused.” The foot-
hall-star alumnus causing this rip-
ple is Joe Ferguson, played by
Thornton Stearns, the earnest
young juvenile of “Our Town.” At
the apex of this triangle perches
Ellen. Tommy’s pretty wife, play-
ed by a newcomer to the group,
Bettina Harrison.
A similar triangle among the
college students involves another
newcomer, William S.vmes, us the
intellectual Michael Barnes; Rob-
ert McMasters, also in his first
role, here as football-hero Wally
Myers; and Diana Mansfield as
Patricia Stanley.
As the loud-mouthed Ed Keller
will be Harry Wood, the genial Doe
Gibbs of “Our Town,” and as Myr-
tle Keller, Charlotte Burr. Profes-
sor Robert D. Eddy of Tufts ap-
pears as Dean Damon and Muriel
Dantona as his wife.
Cleota, the maid with more per-
sonality than efficiency, will he
Dorothy Abbott; and Bunny Blair
appears as a snappy band major-
ette.

WINCHESTER
HOME AND GARDEN CLUB
The Fall meeting of the Win-
chester Home and Garden Club was
hold at the home of Mrs. Wilfred
McKenzie, 20 Ardley place on Wed-
nesday afternoon, October 14th.
Mr. Allan H. Wood, Jr., was the
speaker, his subject being “Autumn
Planting and Winter Care”. From
his wide knowledge and experience
he gave many valuable sugges-
tions on the care of our gardens and
explained that great care and wis-
dom is needed in preparing them
for the winter months. How to
prevent the rabbits from eating the
garden flowers and vegetables!
Place coco-cola bottles flush with
the ground near the flowers and
vegetables, and Lo! Mr. Rabbit
and even Mr. Woodchuck will not
visit them. The air blowing across
the open bottles, tho’ not audible
to human ears is to Mr. Bunny
and Mr. Woodchuck, a most mys-
terious and terrifying noise. An-
other helpful suggestion is to plant
ones tulip blubs 8 to 14 inches
deep, in so doing the bulbs will not
have to be removed and will blos-
som for several years. Following
his lecture a question period was
held and again Mr. Wood proved

setts, and a student at Northeast-
ern University. * Those who came

ance, and are sure that all Forum

PLYMOUTH DISPLAYING
54 MODELS
The new Plymouth for 1954 went
on display throughout the United
States on Friday, October 16, with
the local display at Logan and
Chrusz Motors, Inc., 7 Shore road.
The now Plymouth may he seen
here at Logan and Chrusz Motors
Inc., 7 Shore road.
“We are confident that people
will like the new beauty of our 1954
cars, says President John P. Mans-
field of Plymouth. “We are abso-
lutely ccrtnin that they are the
most durable, best riding, best per-
forming and roomiest cars that
Plymouth has ever built.”
Plymouth is using the link type
of power steering. The hydraulic
“muscle” is in the steering linkage.
Plymouth officials say it is the most
effective, compact and serviceable
installation produced for cars in
the low price field. It reduces
steering effort up to 80 per cent,
permits fingertip control in tight
parking situations and promotes
safe driving through lessening of
driver fatigue and absorption of
road shock.
In its 1954 line, Plymouth offers
three options in power drives.
Hy-drive, a no-shift unit made up
of a combination of torque conver-
ter and three-speed transmission,
was introduced during the 1953
model year. It will be in volume
production for 1954 models. The
two other options are Synchro-
Silent three- speed transmission
and Synchro-Silent with Overdrive,
which provides a fourth forward
speed for cruising. Mansfield said
more than half the Plymouths now
being produced have either Hy-
Drive or Overdrive.

COMMUNITY SCHOOL
PAST AND FUTURE
The quality of Christian educa-
tion in Winchester’s Protestant
Churches this year will he better
because of the training received in
the Community School of Christian
Education which closed last Mon- j
day. Approximately one hundred
and fifteen were registered during
the five weeks of clnsses, and many
favorable comments have testified
to the valuable help received.
Thanks are due to all who aided
the school, most particularly to
Rev. Walter L. Bailey and the First
Baptist Church for making avail-
able its excellent facilities for the
five evenings. To Rev. Lawrence
F. Small, Dean of the school, much
credit is duo for its direction and
leadership. Mrs. Hugh J. Erskine
provided the valuable stimulus of a
well-stocked literature table of
helpful hooks and pamphlets from
the Public Library, and a biblio-
graphy prepared by Miss Corinne
Mead and her staff.
Mrs. Warren P. Eldridge served
as efficient secretary and registrar
of the school, Mr. Benjamin Gowing
as treasurer, and Mrs. NoYman J.
Padelford as publicity chairman.
All expenses of the school were
cared for by the Protestant Minis-
ters’ Association of Winchester and
our gratitude for this generosity is
very sincere.
The planning committee which is
made up of the ministers and repre-
sentatives of each of the Protestant
Churches of Winchester will hold
a meeting on Friday evening, No-
vember 6, to evaluate the results
of the school just completed and
begin to lay plans for next year’s
school. Christian education is a
continuing responsibility and an
annual school for Church School
teachers and others interested in
Christian work with children is a
necessary aspect of our program.
Any suggestions for constructive
improvement will he received glad-
ly by anyone on the planning com-
mittee.

The first meeting of the Tues-
day Group of the Church of the
Epiphany was held on Tuesday,
October 13th, at the home of Mrs.
J. K. Colony.
Mrs. Warren D Haley, Chairman
of the Tuesday Group, presided at
what proved to he a very interest-
ing and lively business meeting.
After the opening prayer, Mrs.
Haley graciously welcomed all
newcomers and asked them to
stand so all could say “Hello” to
them too. She then asked for the
reports of the Secretary, Mrs. Ed-
ward Morse, and of the Treasurer,
Mrs. Robert Nycre. The following
then spoke briefly: Mrs. Garrett
Graves for Ways and Means, Mrs.
William Hopkins for Program, Mrs.
John Bird for Hospitality, and Mrs.
Donald McLean for the Cradle Roll.
In behalf of the Church Service
League, Mrs. Gerald Hills asked

overseas, Mrs. Donald Heath told
of the number of surgical dressings
made for the hospital every week
and expressed hope that even more
could he made, and finally Mrs. II.

ested to come to the Church on

WOMEN'S REPUBLICAN CLUB
Beatrice Hancock Mullaney, Vice
Chairman of the Republican State
Committee, addressed the opening
meeting of the Women’s Republican
Club held Wednesday, October 14,
at the Crawford Memorial Method-
ist Church.
Speaking on the topic, “It’s
Worth the Cost”, she pointed out
the terrific responsibility resting on
he Republican party to maintain
its position in the next Congress-
ional campaign, the difficult “off”
year for the party in power. We
cannot he complaisant nor can wc
become the minority again, she
warned. We must keep Congress
Republican so that President Eisen-
hower’s program may he complet-
ed.
Referring to the recent success-
ful Republican dinner in Boston,
Mrs. Mullaney described the tre-
mendous and gratifying response
to this dinner ns the people’s recog-
nition of good government. “I am
convinced,” slu? continued, “that
thinking people like very much
what they are getting at state and
national levels. Governor Herter
recognizes the vital needs of our
state. He is selling himself every
day wherever he appears his poli-
tical credo being, “I will do what is
right regardless of whether it
makes me popular.” He is getting
increasing support from members
of the opposition party, even in
Boston, for the intelligent people
are reached and impressed when
they are getting good government.”
Of great interest to all Republic-
ans will he the school of politics
which Lt. Gov. Sumner Whittier is
currently setting up. There will he
divisions of the school in ten areas
of the commonwealth. Five meet-
ings will he held with two lectures
and a question period each night.
Completed plans and details will be
announced presently. All Republic-
ans should enroll and learn what
can he done to keep President
Eisenhower and Governor Herter
in office.
Mrs. Mullaney also urged club
members to watch for the date and
to attend the regional federation
conference of Republican women.
Concluding her very stimulating
talk, Mrs. Mullaney challenged her
audience with this final thought,
“Women, keep informed and defend
your party. We must overcome
the terrific apathy in this country
and we cannot guard our freedom
too closely.”
Mrs. Robert Wood Reynolds,
president of the club, presided at
the meeting and introduced the
guests of honor, Mrs. Sumner Whit-
tier and Mrs. Robert P. Campbell.
Tea followed the program with
Mrs. Alonzo Woodside and Mrs.
Campbell pouring and Mrs. Whit-
tier cutting a birthday cake in
honor of President Eisenhower’s
birthday which fell on the same day
as the club meeting.

HARRIERS SPLIT
WITH WAKEFIELD
Tuesday the local runners enter-
tained Wakefield in two meets for
underclassmen. The first race went
to the visitors by a score of 24 to
33 and the second was won by the
Red and Black by n count of 28 to
29.
Both races were well contested
and it gave the freshmen nnd
sophomores some fine running ex-
perience. The first race saw 12
runners leave the start. The first
half mile found Moccia nnd Kerr in
the lead followed closely by Bob
Dnuphinais of Winchester. At the
half way post Boh took over the
top spot and continued to widen his
margin to win by 150 yards in the
excellent time of 19:27. Binding in
4th and Bates, 7th also finished well
and show promise for the future.
Eighteen harriers ran the second
race and this event soon settled in-
to a red hot duel between Roger
Maloney of Wakefield and Bob
Becker of the home team. Run-
ning almost stride for stride in the
first mile it wasn’t until the half-
way point that Boh managed to
open a five yard margin over his
opponent. From there to the fin-
ish the distance remained the same,
Maloney tried to sprint the last 300
yards hut Boh held his own and
added a few extra yards to win by
3 seconds. Wakefield took second,
third and fourth position hut Mc-
Carthy, Franson, and Knecland
grabbed the 5, 6 and 7 spots and
Stratton pulled into 9th to sew lip
the one point victory. Bob’s win-
ning time was a very fast 17:24,
his best effort this season.

CHANGE IN TELEPHONE RATES THE PARISIAN MARKET PLACE
Massachusetts became the 39th
state in the nntion to adopt a 10-
ccnt minimum for calls made from
coin box telephones Wednesday, Oc-
tober 14th, when the new telephone
rates approved by the Department
of Public Utilities October 13th
went into effect. This increase, plus
certain increases in monthly base
rates, complies with the September
30th order of the DPU.
Some Massachusetts coin box
telephones were operating on
the 10-ccnt minimum basis Wed-
nesday, hut it may take three days
to complete the changeover of all
the 33,000 telephones in the com-
monwealth, according to Hugh W.
MacDonald, Massachusetts gene-
ral manager of the telephone com-
pany.
“Telephone coin boxes thnt have
been changed to a 10-ccnt opera-
tion will carry signs stating that
a dime or two nickels will be need-
ed to complete a call,” Mr. Mac-
donald explained. “If a telephone
user drops only a nickel in a coin
box after the change, he will not
get dial tone or a response from the
operator. In such a case, the tele-
phone user can drop another nickel
to complete his call, or he can hang
up and his nickel will ho returned.
Two nickels or a dime will he need-
ed to complete a call after a coin
box telephone has been changed.”
Mr. Macdonald announced that
although the telephone company is
complying with the DPU’s order
in filing these new rates and put-
ting them into effect, it will appeal
from the order to the Massachu-
setts Supreme Court. He pointed
out that in its order the DPU au-
thorized the telephone company to
collect less than half the additional
revenues it requested nearly a year
ago.
Come! have a happy exciting
time at “The Parisian Market
Place,” F i r s t Congi egationnl
Church on Wednesday, November
4th. The doors open at 10:00 a. m.

WINCHESTER
DISTRICT NURSING ASSOCIATION
The associate members of the
Winchester District Nursing Asso-
ciation met with the hoard on Fri-
day, October 16th, to discuss the
budget and plans for the coming
year. Mrs. Holdsworth presented
a very carefully worked-out budget
which was discussed and voted.
Miss Phyllis Tucker joined the
staff of the W.D.N.A. on September
25th, so that with a full comple-
ment of nurses the Winchester
District Nursing Association stands
ready to be of service to any-
one in the community who is un-
der a doctor’s care and who needs
the part-time services of a nurse.
She will come into the home once
a day or once a week to carry out
any nursing procedure ordered by
the doctor, and to help make the
patient more comfortable. She will
at the same time teach the family
how to care for the patient more
effectively. Where there is a new-
born baby the nurse will show the
mother how to bathe it, care for
it and make the formula. In the
field of health guidance she will
advise on diets and nutrition and
teach groups in nursing proced-
ures. Mrs. Wiklund is currently
teaching a Red Cross course in
home nursing at the high school,
and Girl Scout Troop No. 63 will
visit the office in preparation for
their Scout Health Badge.
The staff of the W.D.N.A. are
attending the series of eight con-
ferences in Medford on the Home
Accident Prevention Program.
Mrs. Wiklund attended in June the
convention of the National League
for Nursing in Cleveland, Ohio.
The theme of this conference was
the need for concerted action to
meet the nation’s nursing needs.
Mrs. Wiklund recounted to the
meeting the programs, exhibits and
educational films as well as the in-
dividual exchange of ideas with
other nurses which add greatly to
the understanding of nursing prob-
lems and to the effectiveness of the
public health nurse in the homo
and in the community.
IN OUR OLDEST
SHIRT CONTEST
The winners came in with tails (lying
During the past three weeks a lot of bureau drawers
must have had a real cleaning out, for many people re-
ported by mail, phone, or through their routenian that
they had a wearable shirt which might qualify as a
winner.
TAP of Stonchani reported the oldest shirt, dated 4/28,
and he will receive three new shirts.
T F S of Woburn, 6/32, and we arc sending him two new
shirts.
C W S of Melrose, 8/32, will receive one new shirt.
Our purpose in holding this contest was twofold: first, to
bring to the attention of our regular customers the long
life which every shirt may expect as a result of Wake-
field Laundry’s careful methods; and secondly, to acquaint
new and prospective customers with the high quality ser-
vice they, too, will receive when they send their shirts

TOWN MEETING
SUPPORTS SELECTMEN
$190,000 FOR GRADE CROSSING
LAND DAMAGES VOTED
One hundred and eighty-three of
the limited town meeting's 220 pre-
cinct members voted overwhelm-
ingly at a special town meeting last
week Thursday evening to support
the Selectmen's endorsement of the
State Department of Public Works’
plan to eliminate the grade cross-
ing in Winchester Center by rais-
ing the B & M tracks through
town, appropriating $190,000 to he
taken from the Excess and Defi-
ciency Fund of the town to pay for
land damages incurred in connec-
tion with the project.
The vote was 143 in favor and
23 opposed, leaving 17 who did not
vote or had left the hall before the
vote was taken. The hall was well
filled for the meeting which lasted
from 7:50 until 11:40 p. m. Moder-
ator Philip Wadsworth presided.
In addition to appropriating the
$190,000 the delegates voted to
authorize the Selectmen, or the
chairman of the Board of Selectmen
to enter into definite agreements
with the Commonwealth through
its Department of Public Works, or
with uny other parties in interest
which will provide for the elimina-
tion of the grade crossing in the
center and the construction in con-
nection therewith of a traffic by-
pass for through traffic around the
center.
Chairman Greer of the Board of
Selectmen spoke first, reviewing
the history of the grade crossing
controversy during the last 60
years and describing briefly some
of the plans, other than the over-
head tracks plan which had been
advocated for the crossing's elim-
ination. Among those described
were the Vinal Plan, the Redfern
Plan, the Stone Arch Bridge Plan,
the Bruddock-Symmes Plan, the
Kellaway Plan and others.
Continuing, Mr. Greer told how
in 1945 a town meeting voted the
Selectmen $2,500 to obtain tech-
nical assistance in their study of
the elimination problem and of the
retaining of Col. Moore as advisor
and consultant. At a hearing held
in November, 1945, Mr. Greer said,
a sense of the meeting vote showed
430 in favor of eliminating the
grade crossing by raising the
tracks, seven for the Kellaway
Plan and one for the Vinal Plan.

REFERENDUM PAPERS OUT
Papers have been in circulation
this week petitioning the Select-
men for a referendum on the recent
vote of the special town meeting
appropriating $190,000 as the
town’s share of the six million
dollar project to eliminate the
grade crossing in the center by
raising the railroad tracks, and
authorizing the Selectmen, or
chairman of the Board of Select-
men to enter into definite agree
ments with the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts through the Depart
ment of Public Works, or with any
other parties in interest which will
provide for elimination in this way,
and for the construction therewith
of a traffic by-pass for through
traffic around the center.
Referendum papers were taken
out by Arthur J. Hewis, Jr., and
I.orence M. Woodside. The signa-
tures of 250 registered voters are
necessary on the petition which
must be filed with the Board of
Selectmen by 4:30 Thursday, Oc
toher 29.
If, after check by the registrars
of voters, the signatures are found
to be correct and the petition is in
order, the Selectmen shall hold a
meeting within ten days of the
receipt of the petition and then
shall set a date for the referendum
which must be within 14 days of
the Selectmen's meeting. A tenta-
tive date of November 24 has beep
set for the referendum with the
word at the town hall being that it
can not he held later than that.
Presuming that the requisite
number of signatures arc secured
and the referendum is called, this
will mark the second time a refer-
; ondum has been held in connection
: with the overhead crossing pro-
I posal.
At the 1952 town meeting the
delegates voted 151 to 1 to approve
the plan to eliminate the grade
crossing by raising the tracks and
to authorize the Selectmen to co-
, operate in any way with state and
county officials to bring about the
i elimination.
A referendum on this vote was
held, and following a red hot cam-
paign, those voting sustained the
town meeting decision by a vote of
3,120 to 1,744.
This year’s town meeting vote
appropriating the $190,000 for land
damages and authorizing the Se-
lectmen to make definite agree-
ments in the matter of the elimin-
ation was 143 in favor and 23 op-
posed, with 16 not voting.
Should the referendum vote
again to sustain the vote of the
town meeting delegates there is lit-
tle doubt that the authorities can
justifiably feel that a majority of
the town sufficiently interested to
vote on the matter, has approved
the overhead tracks plan to elimin-
ation.
What the authorities will feel
should the opponents of the elim-
ination by raising the tracks prove
successful in overthrowing the vote
of the town meeting by referendum
is a question. When asked about
such a contingency in advance of
the recent hearing and town meet-
ing the Chairman of the Board of
Selectmen quite frankly replied
that be did not know.
He felt that the town’s refusal
to approve the overhead tracks
plan and to appropriate the funds
for land damages would put the
entire matter up to the state, which
he did not doubt under the law
would, if it so desired, have the
right to proceed with the project
any way.
The cost of the entire project of
raising the tracks and providing
the diversionary highway through
the Skillings estate is set at six
million dollars, but since it was
stated at both the hearing and sub-
sequent town meeting that the
plans are not yet entirely complete
and will he subject to change in the
actual working phases of the job,
it can he believed, especially by
those who have doubted the wisdom
of the project from the start, that
the cost will exceed the figure
named, perhaps by quite a sum.
Especially have the State author-
ities been busy with plans for the
traffic bypass over the old Black
Ball Portd area, and as late as the
town meeting is was admitted that
engineering decisions are still to be
made before plans for this under-
taking are in finished form.
SPECIAL TOWN MEETINGS
JI NIOK HIGH RKMODKLIM*
ON NOVEMBER 12 DOCKET.
TWELVE ARTICLES, INCH B-
ING DARK IICRST SCHOOL
ADDITION. NOVEMBER l«
RED FEATHER HEADQUARTERS
OPEN
Close upon the heels of the spe-
cial town meeting called to con-
sider the abolition of the Grade
Crossing in the Center, the Select-
men have set the dates for two
more special meetings, the first for
Thursday, November 12, and the
second for Monday, November 16.
The first of the two meetings
will consider exclusively the report
of the Building Committee for
Additional Facilities for the Senior
and Junior High Schools and will
determine whether the town will
authorize the committee to proceed
with its plans and specifications to
remodel and enlarge the present
junior high school to house a four
year senior high school and will
provide funds for the original
equipment of such an enlarged
building.
In the event the meeting does so
instruct the committee, it will he
asked to appropriate money from
the available funds in the Excess
and Deficiency Account, authorize
the appropriation and expenditure
of all or any portion of the Sale of
Town Property Account, and to
authorize the borrowing of money
and the issuance of obligations of
the town therefor under any pro-
vision of law.
No mention is made in the war-
rant for the November 12 meeting,
or in fact in either of the two spe-
cial meetings, to act upon the Com-
mittee’s previously announced plan
to remodel and renovate the present
high school building to house a two-
year junior high school.
Twelve articles will he brought
up for consideration by the Novem-
ber 16 meeting, the first being to
hear the report of the Lewis Park-
hurst School Addition Building
Committee and to see if the town
will authorize the construction of a
six-room addition to the Parkhurst
School, further authorizing the
Building Committee to proceed
with such construction.
If the Committee is authorized to
proceed with this construction the
meeting will be asked to appro-
priate money from the available
funds in the Excess and Deficiency
Account and to authorize the bor-
rowing of money und issuance of
obligations of the town for such
construction under any provision of
law.

sociation, and Winchester Hospi-
tal.

15th REUNION
FOR W.H.S. HASS OF 1938
Last Saturday evening at the
Hampshire House in Boston, the
Winchester High School Class of
1938 held its first reunion since
leaving school, its 15th! More than
125 gathered for this occasion,!
some coming from as far as Wash-
ington, D. C., for the event.
Art and Loretta (Gaffney) John-
son, as master and mistress of
ceremonies, took charge of the pro-
gram, introducing Dan Delorey,
president of the class, who wel-
comed the members of the class
and guests. After reporting on
members of the class who were de-
ceased President Delorey returned
the program to Art, who introduced
the honored guests, Mrs. Robert
Daly (Mary Mackedon) to whom
the class yearbook was dedicated,
coming all the way from Connec-
ticut to join in the celebration; and
Mr. Edward A. Bartlett, currently
principal of the Wadleigh Building
- and popular basketball coach at the
High School. High School Prin-
cipal and Mrs. Wade L. Grindlo
were also invited to attend, but
were unable to do so.
Mrs. Daly expressed pleasure at
being asked to join in the festiv-
ities and told of happenings since
'eaving the High School.
Mr. Bartlett was then called
upon and first expressed regrets
from the Grindlcs at being unable
to he present. He then gave a
resume of the class activities in the
field of athletics, which included
the Thanksgiving football game
\$th Woburn, which Winchester
•ti by the largest score that has
Ifcen made to date, 46-0.
He listed the changes in the
1 ool program, giving the new
rses added to the curriculum
ce 19"8, and also telling about
tjie teachers who are still at
the school, there being thirteen
ii all. Mr. Bartlett expressed
his thanks at being included in the ;
reunion party, stating that this bad
; hern hi first reunion with a class
from Winchester High School, he
too having started teaching at the
school in the latter part of 1937.
Gifts were presented to all the
guests from the class and a special
gift was presented to Mrs. Daly, a
set of matched jewelry, made and
designed by Miss Grace Irwin, a
member of the class. A gift is to
be presented to “Tommy” Parsons,
a member of the Winchester Police
Department who has been confined
to the hospital with polio and could
not bn present.
Gifts were presented to members
of the class coming the greatest
distance, the longest married, most
recently married, (six months) the
most children, (seven); and for the
most recently born baby (4 weeks).
Dancing followed the singing of
th* elusB song, which for future
classes planning reunions, is not a
class song at all and no explanation
can he given as to why it is even
listed as such.
Everyone is now looking forward
to the 25th reunion of the class, and
even talking of having one for the
20th, indicating what a good time
i was had by all and saying a de-
I served tribute to the committee in
charge of arrangements.
The members of the committee
include; Dan Delorey, Genieva
(Manning) Roop, “Rocky” DeTeso,
“Gerry” Ficociello, “Lad” Millican,

ter understanding of the purposes

Parents of students in commer-
cial and practical arts courses are
particularly urged to attend, for in
this year of preparation for in-
creasing facilities in the secondary
schools, parents should see for
themselves what is now provided,
and note the many limitations.
Because of the large number of
parents expected, it will be im-
possible for teachers to hold in-
dividual conferences about indi-
vidual students. However, we re-
mind you that each teacher re-
serves every Tuesday afternoon
from 2:35 until 3:15 for confer-
ences with parents.

a copy of your child’s schedule for
Thursday so that you will know
where to go each period.
Refreshments will lie served in
the cafeteria and you may go there
when a study period shows in the
schedule. The study periods will
also give you an opportunity to
visit some of the special rooms of
the school such us the auditorium,
gymnasium, art room which is on
the third floor, and library which is
on the second floor. You are also
invited to visit the Principal’s
Office and the Guidance Office.
We hope to see you licit* on No-
vember 5 won’t you please come!
Jf further information is desired,
please call tin High School, Win-
chester 6-0649, or Mr. MeCreery,
you i President at WI 15-203(5.
With today’s issue of the Woburn
Daily Times Edward P. “Mack” i
McKenzie of 24 Symmes road is re-
tiring from the stall* of the paper
after an association of 34 years
as Winchester reporter and repre-
sentative. Many will miss his col-
umn in the Times and regret that
the veteran reporter has finally
yielded to the repeated urging of
iiis family to take a well-earned
rest after his years in harness.
“Mack” joined the Times stalT
back in 1919 when the late James
D. Haggerty, father of the present
incumbent, was editor. Previous to
“Mack’s” taking over Winchester,
Times correspondents had covered
local news in so-so fashion, but it
wasn’t long before the new report-
er was making a full-time job of
his coverage and through the years
his column and special stories have
come to he among the paper’s most
popular features.
Day in and day out, come rain
or high wind, snow, tempest or
stiffing heat, “Mack” has been eter-
nally on the job, first at the Times
office in the morning and back in
the Center by eight o’clock ready
to start nosing about for the day’s
news. Seldom has it been that he
hasn’t unearthed a good story or
two during the day.
Especially interested in sports,
“Mack” is probably known to more
old-line spoils characters than any- j
one hereabouts. Always outspoken
and fearless in his opinions, his
prognostications of sports events,
especially of the yearly Winches-
tcr-Woburn football games, have
been eagerly awaited by Times
readers and have proved the basis
of many hot arguments, pro and
con.
In the field of local politics few
have been closer to the real picture
than “Mack,” who has never hesi-
tated to take a stand with or
against local department heads, |
however popular or unpopular they
might be. “Mack’s” opinions have
been eagerly sought by politicos
and laymen alike in advance of lo-
cal elections and he has been right
in his predictions many more times
than he lias been wrong.
Everybody knows and has known
“Mack.” Hundreds have talked
with him daily, discussing or argu-
ing town topics and finding him al-
ways ready to defend his views or
condemn their stand if he thought
them wrong.
Through the years he has run
baseball teams and maintained or-
der at Fourth of July children’s
parties, judged doll carriage and
costume parados, attended com-
munion breakfasts at the town hall,
political dinners at the Country
Club and spaghetti feeds at the
Sons of Italy clubhouse. A regular
attendant at policemen’s and fire-
men’s halls, as well as at local
sports events, he yearly occupied
his place at the town meeting press
table, his running comments on the
procedures and personalities of
town meetings being both pene-
trating and priceless.
A lifelong resident of Winches-
ter, “Mack” has always loved the
town and worked for its best in-
terests as he has seen them. He is
something of an authority on old
Winchester and his knowledge of
the old families und historic spots
about town is extensive. Often in
his column he wrote interesting
stories about old times or places
when something occurred to recall
them to his mind. Long a resident
of tin* North End and as a young
man for years a gardener on some
of the finest places of the West
Side, “Mack” has known them all,
high and low, rich and poor, saint
and sinner.
Now at the age of 85 “Mack” is
going to cover his typewriter after
34 years of hatting out local news.
Who would deny him the vacation
lie can now enjoy. His yearly “one-
day fishing trip” lias been a vaca-
tion joke the Star has long enjoyed
with him. He has always been eter-
nally on the job.
He deserves unlimited time to
enjoy the sports events on TV and
to pick up new Irish song and dance
numbers. May lie live long to enjoy
the fruits of labor well done and
to do the things now that he wants
to do without regard for making
his paper’s deadline!

eral hospital service to the people
of Winchester and neighboring
communities. In commenting on
his years as president, Mr. Kener-
son spoke with appreciation of the
loyal support he had received dur-
ing the war years and during the
construction program and stated
he was confident that similar loyal-
ty and support would he given to
his successor in carrying on the
work and meeting the problems
of the years ahead.
The meeting particularly wished
to thank the Building Committee
und a resolution was passed ex-
pressing deep appreciation for the
services of Harold B. Richmond,
chairman of the Building Commit-
tee and Alfred Denley of the Com-
mittee in carrying through to com-
pletion, at close to budget estim-
ates, the construction program of
the Hospital during a most difficult
period which included national
strikes, labor shortages and rising
cost s.
At tlic close of the meeting, Mr.
Gilbert II. Hood, Jr., Vice-Pres-
ident of the Hospital, voiced the
appreciation of the members of the
Hospital for the accomplishments
and progress which have taken
place under Mr. Kenerson’s leader-
ship and offered the following reso-
lution which was unanimously
adopted:
“Whereas, on the occasion of this
annual meeting of the members of
tlie Winchester Hospital, Edward

pital from 1923 to 1928, Vice-Pres-
ident from 1939 to 1943 and Pres-
ident from 1943 to 1953, lie has

and leadership in the growth and

FROM THE OFFICE OF
COLLECTOR OF TAXES
The General Laws of the Coni*
momvoalth of Massachusetts, Sec-
tion 57 of Chapter 59, provides
that:
“Interest shall be paid at the
rate of four per cent per an-
num on all real estate and per-
sonal property taxes remain-
ing unpaid after November
first of the year in which they
are payable.”
November 1, 1953, falls on Sun-
day. It is the opinion of the Com-
missioner of Corporations and Tax-
ation, that the Collectors of Mass-
achusetts should accept payment
of 1953 taxes on November 2, 1953,.
without interest. It is to be under-
stood that payments not received
by the Collector until November 3,
1953, are not to be accepted with-
out required interest computed
from October 1, 1953.
Payments of 1953 taxes will be
taken without interest in the event
that payment either in the form
of a check, money order or cash is
in the Collector’s office before the
regular closing hours, 4:30 P. M.,
on November 2, 1953.

THE WINCHESTER, MASS., STAR. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1953
W.H.S. CROSS COUNTRY
Winchester High School’s cross
country team traveler! to Danvers
yesterday for the Divisional Meet
held at Essex Agricultural School.
Other members of the Pilgrim Di - 1
vision included Wakefield, Woburn,
Concord, Wellesley, Everett Voca-
tional, and Revere. With the league
competition at the halfway point,
Wakefield leads with 1 wins and no
losses. Wellesley, Woburn, ami
Winchester , which was last year's
title holder, appear to be about j
equal in power, but Wakefield was
the strong favorite.
Outstanding in league competi-
tion is Swartz of Wakefield, who is
as yet unbeaten. Lou Farrell, who
was Winchester’s freshman sen-
sation last year, lost to Swartz
when he had the misfortune to come
up with a severe injury in the open-
ing meet of the year. Lou expects
to even the score before the season
is over.
Among the officers of the Middle-
sex Cross Country League for this
year are President Thomas A.
Morse of Winchester, Vice-Presi-
dent Carleton Seamons of Belmont,
and Secretary-Treasurer Robert
Gleason of Watertown.
The climax of the league’s com-
petition will come on October 31,
when runners from both the Pil-
grim and Pioneer divisions face
the starter’s gun at Tufts College.
The MCCL is one of the strongest
leagues in the state, and close to
300 boys participate in the varsity
and junior varsity race each year.
At the state meet last year three
of the four classes were won by
teams from Middlesex. Class A was
won by Melrose, Class C by Wake-
field, and Class I) by Winchester.
BOWLING PARTY
The next meeting of the First
Congregational Church Young
Adults Group will be a bowling
party. The group will meet at Strike
Lanes, 7 Winchester place, at 8
o’clock on Friday evening, Novem-
ber 6, for bowling, and will then
go to one of the members’ homes
for relaxation, music and refresh-
ments.
All young, unmarried people are
cordially invited. A variety of in-
teresting meetings have been ar-
ranged for the fall and winter
months.

HARRIERS LOSE TO WELLESLEY,
DEFEAT EVERETT VOCATIONAL
The local runners traveled to
Wellesley last Friday, October Iff, |
for a meet with the home club and
also Everett Vocational. The Red
and Black, running one of their
poorest races, took a sound benting
from Wellesley and just managed
to edge Everett.
The race saw 50 runners facing
the starters gun. At the start the
Wellesley team raced away to an
early lead with Winchester runners
showing poor judgment in the
early pace. At the halfway point
Lou Farrell and Chapin of Welles-
ley had taken a slight lead over
Captain Becker of Winchester and
Bottsford of the home club. In the
meantime a solid block of Welles-
ley runners had formed behind
these leaders. With a half mile to
go Farrell had established a 40
yard lead over Chapin and had the
race well in hand. He came on to
finish in the top spot and tied the
course record in 13:42. Chapin
took second with John Becker a
strong third. However, the next
five positions were taken by Wel-
lesley men before Dick Borggaard
finished in 0th place. This block
of runners cinched the victory for
Wellesley with the score 24 to 36.
This loss was tough to take for the
Winchester team as they expected
to give Wakefield a run for the Div-
isional title at Essex Aggies on
October 23rd. It now appears that
the local team can be conceded
only an outside chance to capture
the chumpionship they have held
for two years.
In the scoring of the Everett
Vocational meet the Red and Black
managed to win a close 26 to 29
victory with Farrell and Becker in
the one and two spots. Borggaard,
5th, Smith, 8th, and Morgan, 10th,
completed the scoring for Win-
chester.
The Junior Varsity continued
their string of victories with two
wins over Wellesley by a score of
26 to 33 and Everett Vovcational
by 18 to 45. Govostes led the pack
in the Everett Vocational meet with
Stratton in 2nd place. In the Wel-
lesley meet Boehne of the home
club was in the winners spot while
Charlie Govostes took the runner
up position.

FELLOWSHIP HOUR A SUCCESS
The Fellowship. Hour held last
Sunday evening at the Second Con-
gregational Church was well at-
tended, in spite of the rainy weath-
er. Many comments of approval
were made to the pastor, Mr. Skei-
rik. Therefore, such a program
will be planned for once a month.
Song books with the gospel hymns
will he purchased for such services.
In addition to the service there will
be arranged some sort of enter-
tainment to give the people an op
portunity to get acquainted with

The third week of bowling has
come and gone with more changes
in the top five bowlers as the tempo
increases.
The standing of the top five
bowlers is as follows:
on bowling night the excitement
and cheering could he heard out-
side the bowling coliseum. I did-
n’t know what to expect. For a
moment I thought Julius La Rosa
was visiting hut no, a greater sur-
prise was in store for me, “Wed-
ding Bells Robert” was hack.
Seen among the spectators was
our good friend Jack Pantalea.
What good friend of ours howls
with a pipe dangling from his
mouth ?
Who was it that could not stand
up in alley 6? P. S. He also wears
bowling shoes.
Believe it or not — Ben Gillotti
bowled a 3 string total of 273.
“Papa Corrigador” and his chil-
dren arc setting the pace.
There were no complaints this
week.
The winner of this week’s raffle
was our good friend Nick Molea.
See you next week.

BADMINTON FREE INSTRUCTION
SESSION SUCCESSFUL
Many now faces wore present at
the high school gym for badminton
this week taking advantage of the
special free instruction announced
last week.
The court set aside for this pur-
pose was kept busy both Tuesday
and Thursday evenings as the new
players concentrated on learning
the fundamentals of the game and
entered into the spirit of things
enthusiastically.
Just a reminder thnt nil otic
needs to play are flat-soled sneak-
ers and play clothing.
Another honor was bestowed up-
on the Badminton Club last week
when, at the annual meeting of
the Massachusetts Badminton As-
sociation held at the University
Club, President Larry Palmer ac-
cepted for the club a plaque for
winning the Class C-D Mixed Dou-
bles and Ladies Doubles for 1952-

plaques won the previous year.
Also, club members celebrated
Hallowe’en with a special party of
their own on Thursday evening
with all members required to wear

later. It proved to be a gay and
well-attended affair.

AMICO OUT OF N. H. FOOTBALL
Paul Amico, former Winchester
High School football star, and cap-
tain of the Winchester team of
1949, has been forced out of foot-
ball at the University of New
Hampshire by a shoulder separ-
ation which will shelve him for the
remainder of the season. Since
Paul is a senior his college football
days are over.
The chunky Winchester boy |
climaxed a great high school career
by nearly beating Woburn single
handed in his final Thanksgiving
Day game on Manchester Field.
Throughout his senior year he was
the mainstay of his team offensive-
ly, and at the conclusion of the sea-
son he was chosen to play in All
Star games both at Manning Bowl,
Lynn, and in Florida.
He made the University of New
Hampshire freshman team in 1950
and played two years of varsity
ball at Durham as a defensive half-
hack in the two platoon system.
This year as a senior he was being
groomed to play two ways when he
hurt his shoulder even before the
start of the regular season.
He still continued to play as he
was able until a second injury to
the shoulder resulted in the separ-
ation that ended his playing days,
as a collegian.
ATTENDED REUNION
IN ST. LOUIS
Mrs. Alice G. Miller of 22 Myr-
tle street recently spent four days
in St. Louis, flying both ways. She
attended a family reunion, where
her daughter, Ruth, who is on her
way to Texas, also was present.
Mrs. Miller spent two days observ-
ing the work in the remedial read-
ing clinics in the St. Louis public
schools.
Miss Ruth G. Miller has gone to
San Antonio, Texas, where she will
play in the violin section of the
San Antonio Philharmonic Orches-
tra for the winter season.
THE SENIOR FORUM
On this Sunday, November 1, the
Senior Forum of the First Congre-
gational Church will resume their
chapel services by meeting at 9:30
to bear the minister of our neigh-
boring Second Congregational
Church, the Rev. A. John Skeirik.
The chaplain will be Andy Robert-
son, and assistant chaplain will be
Richard Kmerson. Acting ns dea-
cons will he John Butler and Ray
Simpson, and ushering will be Bill
Mock and Dick Johnson.
Mr. Skeirik received his A.B. de-
gree from Syracuse University,
and his S.T.B. degree from Boston
University School of Theology,
and later had one year of graduate
work in Religious Education at
Union Theological Seminary. Af-
ter being ordained in the Methodist
Church, he served as Assistant
Pastor and Director of Youth at
Tabernacle Methodist Church,
Binghamton, N. Y.; and was Meth-
odist pastor in Wyoming Confer-
ence of New York State. This past
year he transferred to the Woburn
Association of Congregational Con-
ference and is now serving as min-
ister at the Second Congregational
Church, Winchester.
The Forum Worship Committee,
under the chairmanship of Carol
Ashenden and Joan Morrison, are
this month planning the worship
services with the over-all theme
of “Christian Action.” Mr. Skeirik
has chosen as his topic for this
Sunday, “A Mind Must Love God.”
The Forum Work Day for
Christ activities are now in full
swing as members are working dili-
gently, either today or tomorrow
(October 30 or 31st) to achieve
their goal of $300 to be distributed
among five very worthwhile pro-
jects of the Christian World Mis-
sion.

MISS LAMPREY
AWARDED SCHOLARSHIP
Miss Judith Lamprey, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth W. Lam-
prey of 63 Emerson road, has been
awarded the Phillips Scholarship
by Simmons College for the year
1952-53.
The scholarship is awarded for
outstanding scholastic ability and,
to be eligible, the recipient must
have a scholastic “B” average.
Miss Lamprey, a junior in the
School of Business, is a member of
the Simmons Y. W. C. A., secre-
tary-treasurer of the Student
Christian Association and Outing
Club.
Registrar of Motor Vehicles,
Rudolph F. King, today issued a
special appeal to motorists to be
unusually alert while driving on
Hallowe’en, that special day in the
year which is reserved as a time of
great adventure for children.
Dressed in traditional costumes of
witches, ghosts, and spirits of an-
other World, our future citizens
will he seeking fun as they threat-
en “trick or treat” to friends and
neighbors alike.
It is the duty of motorists to
keep children free from harm as
gaily costumed youngsters, their
minds intent on the fun and frolic
at hand, will probably expose them-
selves to greater hazards than at
any other time.
Parents must closely supervise
children and be sure that play
masks allow ample vision, and they
should instruct youngsters in the
proper way to have fun without
causing malicious damage or de-
duction to the property of others.
If motorists and parents will co-
operate with the enforcement offi-
cials of the Commonwealth, we can
prevent serious injury or death to
little ones over this 1953 Hallo-
we’en.
POST COMMUNION BREAKFAST

The Junior High Fellowship of
tin' First Congregational Church
will meet this Sunday at 4:30 in
the junior high room. The program,
in charge of Sandy Eriksen and
Martha Fish, will include a dis-
cussion on “What’s a Dollar

In a cleanly fought hut bruising
battle between two well-matched
teams, Winchester, scored on early
in the first quarter by a smoothly
clicking Melrose eleven, roared
back to tie the score in four plays,
and from thnt point on to the final
whistle, although clawed and
mauled by their hot-nnd-cold oppo-
nents, had enough drive to score
two more touchdowns to one for
Melrose and to stave off a final
desperate rally by the Red Raiders
when Pratt intercepted a touch-
down pass on his own fifteen yard
line, from which point, with less
than two minutes of playing time
remaining, to sweep to the Mel-
rose 4 yard line, only to be stopped
from scoring by time running out.
Certainly Melrose at that point in
the game couldn’t have stopped
Bellino, Haggerty, or Murphy from
scoring on the next play.
With frequent time-outs called
because of players on both sides
being shaken up and temporarily
in need of fresh air and rest, the
game turned out to he a test of
stamina and the will to win. Al-
though quickly scored on, Win-
chester refused to admit defeat and
never for a moment gave the im-
pression of a team content with
anything short of a clean-cut vic-
tory. And after stopping Melrose’s
final bid for a possible tie, Win-
chester had enough in reserve to
drive from its own fifteen to the
Melrose four yard line before time
ran out.
It was a game of offensive thrills
supplied by left halfback Malone
of Melrose, who seemed able to find
an opening between his right tac-
kle and right end anytime he want-
ed to and who kept the Winchester
backs on their toes all afternoon
with forward pass threats and
completions; by fullback Cerretani,
who while he was in the game
scored the first Melrose touchdown
and set up another by a long end
run of 37 yards; by left end Shim-
min whose end-around reverses
were a constant threat and sure
ground-gainers whenever Melrose
needed yardage for a first down;
by Joe Bellino, who to quote from
the Boston Herald was the best
back on the field; by Mike Murphy,
whose pile-driving end runs were
something to watch. But there
were defensive gems as well. Bel-
lino on three occasions as safety
man broke through three Melrose
interferers to meet the ball carrier
head-on and save a score. Pratt’s
interception of a touchdown pass
came right after he had broken up
another which threatened to put
Melrose in a scoring position.
On the ground Winchester car-
ried the ball for 284 yards to 204
for Melrose. In the air, Melrose
completed three passes for a total
of 20 yards and one for the point
after its second touchdown. Win-
chester tried only three passes and
complated none of them.
Oddly enough, pass interference
was called once against each team
on important plays. Pratt’s in
terception with two minutes left to
play in the game was the only in-
terception during the afternoon
and it definitely shut the door on
Melrose’s hopes for even a tie score.
Winchester ran back kick-offs for
12, 29, and 9 yards, although Bel-
lino ran Melrose’s second kickoff 85
yards from his own fifteen hut
stepped out of hounds in the 46 in
order to side-step a tackier who
should have been blocked out of the
play. Melrose returned kickoffs 6,
15, 14, and 22 yards. Winchester
returned Melrose’s one punt 47
yards. Melrose returned one of
Winchester’s three punts only five
yards and the other two went out
of hounds.
Actually Melrose ran up 12 first
downs to Winchester’s 11. Like-
wise Melrose put the ball in play
from scrimmage 54 times to 48
plays for Winchester.
After watching Winchester in its
last three games against Winthrop
Stoneham, and Melrose, one can’t
help hut lie impressed by the fact
! that while Winchester cannot be
out-matched in courage and deter-
mination to win, considerable im-
provement could be made in the
play of the line on defense and in
the close hackers-up on the line.
For example, at Stoneham a light
hut fast left-halfback was able on
a delayed buck to knife through the
Winchester line between the tac-
kles consistently for gains of from
five to ten yards. No one seemed
to be able to do anything about it.
At Melrose last Saturday Ma
lone, another left halfback weigh
ing 155 pounds found a spot off his
right tackle that he liked and was

able to pick up five or ten yards
every time he hit it and he hit it
often. A situation like this seems
to demand the ability to size up
what’s happening and to improvize
ways and means to stop it. Fur-
ther evidence of the inability to
figure out on the field a way to stop
a successful play by an opponent
was provided by Melrose’s end-
around play which caught the Win-
chester defense flat-footed every
time it was tried.
Perhaps you can’t have every-
thing. Perhaps we should be satis-
fied to have a fighting, determined
team and hope that they will con-
tinue to he lucky enough to off-set
any lack of what might he called
football brains with rugged brawn.
But what a combination both would
be !
Brains or brawn aside, anyone
from Winchester who saw the Mel-
rose game last Saturday came
away with a feeling of pride in the
team. Scored on early and con-
stantly threatened and hit hard,
even out-smarted now and then,
they had what it takes to win. You
might spell it with a capital G.

RED CROSS ELECTION
AT WASHINGTON SCHOOL
A spirited campaign for Junior
Red Cross officers and representa-
tives was held recently. After can-
didates had been nominated from
each classroom, the youngsters or-
ganized their campaigns, using
posters, slogans, leaflets, songs and
cheers.
As the climax to the campaign
an assembly was held where each
candidate was presented to the au-
dience by acting chairman George
Neville of Grade V. A number of
interesting speeches were heard,
helping the children to make up
their minds about their choice of
candidates. At the conclusion of
the assembly the pupils went to
their respective classrooms, and
voted by secret ballot.
Among the officers and represen-
tatives elected were the following:
president, Billy Lamnrehe, Grade
VI; vice-president, Stephen Dee,
Grade IV; treasurer, Steve Coch-
ran, Grade VI; secretary, George
Neville, Grade V; classroom repre-
sentatives, Mary Varley, Mark Sul-
livan, Martha Adams, John Cussen,
Philip Fischer, Jane Abbott, Judy
Morison, Hope Barker, Penny Bor-
den, and Paul Harrigan. In addi-
tion to arousing interest in the
Junior Red Cross, the campaign
served as excellent training in
citizenship.

A NOTE FOR THE POLICE
October 25, 1953
Editor of the Star:
I am sorry to be obliged to write
this as an open letter but unfor-
tunately I don’t know the names or
addresses of those I wish to con-
tact. I am trying to reach some
young men whose parents were too
busy on the evening of Friday, Oc-
tober 23rd to know where they
were or what they were doing.
I am anxious to contact these
young men because I feel they went
to a good deal of efTort and missed
most of the fun, because, after all
it does take some efTort to let the
air out of two rear tires and un-
screw the valves so they can be
thrown away and that act in itself
is not too enjoyable. The real fun
is to stick around and see the con-
sternation of the owners when they
find the predicament they're in. In
this case you hoys hit the jack-pot
because the owner was a lady in
her 70\s who had been working at
the Town Hall since three in the
afternoon and you’d have died
laughing to see her, tired and
just recovering from a sprained
ankle, get into her car at 9:30 at
night and try to drive off. It real-
ly was hysterical. However even
though not present you were suc-
cessful in having the rim cut one
of the tubes.
I must apologize to you for spoil-
ing some of the fun by having her
driven home in my car, hut I did
feel she should get off that sore
foot. However it may compensate
a little for you to know that I had
been up since six that morning hav-
ing started fairly busy a day at
8:15 by speaking to an assembly
at the Norwood High School. The
Subject? Ironically its one you
know all about and couldn’t he less
interested in — it was about social
etiquette and the importance of
having consideration and respect
for other people and other people’s
property.
You will he delighted to know
however, that there were no service
stations open to accommodate us
that night which meant that my 76
year old dad had to locate a pump
and valve stems and drive to Win-
chester where we pumped up the
undamaged tire and put on the
spare. It was then after 11 p. m.
and we still had to drive one car to
Arlington and the other to Boston.
I’m sorry to report I didn’t have
an adult class waiting for me at
the Arlington Studio as I often
have had in the past, because then
your humor could have affected
that many more people, hut better
luck next time.
Sorry also that you weren’t
around to enjoy the fun, hut per-
haps this report will help.
Very truly yours,

no way endorsing this appeal.
Yours very truly,
The Board of Selectmen
Don S. Greer, Chairman
Ed. Note: We, too, know nothing
of the writer of the following let-
ter, which we print without further
comment.
Looking for Friends in America!
In n few months’ time my wife
nnd I are to emigrate to the States,
accompanied by our two small sons
of 2 nnd 4 years’ age.
We have over there neither rela-
tives nor friends. Therefore we
want to get acquainted with friend-
ly people in this country, who
might he willing to become kind of
foster-parents for us, lending their
helping hands to make us “at
home” over- there in the foreign
country, which is to become our
hoys' homeland nnd to which they
ought to pledge their loyalty one
day.
My wife and I are both 40 years
old nnd have a fairly good know-
ledge of school-English. We
have a typical German name, hut
we hope to become good American
citizens with time, and, what’s
more, assimilate well and wholly.
To facilitate this process we
would he glad to find people, pos-
sibly un elderly couple without
progeny, who would ho willing to
adopt me and mine, giving us their
American name.
The adoptation of « small child
is always a great risk, as nobody
can foretell the further develop-
ment of the babe, hut with grown-
up things are different: one knows
with whom one has to do!
I venture the somewhat hold
aflirmation, that nobody would he
cheated, when becoming our foster-
parent.
We are Christians of protestant
faith, of most honorable, though
humble families, and made both our
way with great energy, rising
steadily to always better life-con-
ditions.
I am horn in Czechoslovakia just
before World War I. After having
attended elementary schools and
commercial schools, I started busi-
ness-life. Before the war I had
special training as engineer, serv-
ing with the Czechoslovakian army,
until the country became part of
Germany, and I was obliged to join
the German army. After the war I
settled as refugee in Wurttemberg
Germany, and became a writer of
fiction and publications about prac-
tical psychology. My wife is
brought up nicely and was a secre-
tary for some years.
We can both prove to have never
had trouble with law-suits or
punishments, nor with the author-
ities, if you won’t consider thus the
sad fact, that both our parents
have been killed by the bolshies —
lienee you may deduce our feelings
in regard to communists.
This letter you arc free to send
to news-agencies or to some lonely
elderly couple, that would be
pleased to get grand-children as a
joy for their old age.
We do not lay any claim upon
material support, as we are both
young enough and ready enough to
work and to earn our cwn living.
We plainly were glad to find
friendly helpers to ease our paths
in the new land.
Apologizing for the bother we
are giving you we send you our
best greetings and thanks in ad-
vance for all you might he doing
on our behalf.

REQUESTS A
REPRESENTATIVE VOTE
Editor of the Star:
It is hoped that every citizen
will turn out nnd vote at the ref-
erendum to lie held soon, relative
to the grade crossing question, and
especially those who oppose the
raising of the railroad.
Let the citizens show by their
ballots that this ill-conceived plan
that has been forced down our
throats at a cost of some millions
of money is not justified when only
by building the by-pass will the
traflie problem he solved at a rea-
sonable cost.
With all the money we soon will
he called upon to appropriate for
schools, fire houses, parks and
playgrounds and to help pay for
the many state roads being built,
we soon will have a tax rate that
will call for another “Tea Party.”
Show more interest than the pre-
cinct members who did not attend
the recent town meeting nnd have
their noses counted on so impor-
tant a matter. I would say a very
limited town meeting.

SPECIAL TOWN MEETING
(Cont.nued from Page 1)
MOTORIST MUST BE ALERT
“The great beauty and splendor
to be observed along every Mass-
achusetts highway during this time
of year will lure thousands of mo-
torists into the country seeking the
ever-changing scenery of early fall.
It is a traditional migration and a
true heritage of all New England-
ers,” state Registrar of Motor Ve-
hicles Rudolph F. King and Chief
of Police Charles J. Harrold of
Winchester in a joint release issued
today.
“But, the period also presents
problems of serious concern to the
accident prevention agencies of the
commonwealth and every one of its
communities. It is a time of special
hazards created by Mother Nature
herself in the form of changing
weather conditions, fallen leaves,
and early darkness," say these of-
ficials.
“The danger of wet, fallen leaves
creates a hazard from skidding and
hours of early darkness add to the
perils which threaten the safety
of children who use play areas in
or adjacent to highways.
“Accidents to children can be
prevented. Motorists must be alert
for the pile of leaves along the side
of the load. In the past, several
children have been killed while
playing in this manner; and the
danger of large paper cartons,
which years ago proved to be death
traps for two tiny tots who were
at play inside them must not be
overlooked by motorists.
“Parents must assume their full
share of responsibility in protec-
tion of their children, never relax-
ing for a moment the vigilance so
necessary for the preservation of
our future citizens. With parents,
motorists, and accident prevention
authorities co-ordinating their ef-
forts, Massachusetts highways can
be kept a source of pleasure and
convenience for all who have the
undeniable right to enjoy their use
in safety,” stated both Registrar
King and Chief Harrold in conclu-
sion.
WINCHESTER HOMEFRONTERS
AN APPEAL
Editor of the Star:
We are attaching to this letter a
mimeographed letter from Edward
URGES GOOD FAITH
IN REFERENDUM CAMPAIGN
Editor of the Star:
Before the referendum campaign
gets underway I should like in the
most serious words of which I am
capable to urge that the good faith
and honesty of purpose of both
sides should he recognized.
It is a sad commentary upon our
times that any such urging should
he necessary; and yet this seems to
be the case.
I think that everyone present at
the town meeting last Thursday
night was deeply distressed by the
fact that one of our most selfless
and respected citizens felt called
upon to defend himself against
rumors of personal motivation
in his advocacy of the present
grade crossing project. It has
been the constructive service of
just such men as he which has
brought Winchester to the position
of high regard in which, until now
at least, it has been held by all
those who have known it. How
long, however, may we expect men
of integrity and ability to devote
long hours to unpaid public service
when their reward is to he accused
of a “pay-off”?
May God forgive us. if by such
irresponsible tactics as these we
contribute to the downfall of local
self government in Winchester.

OPEN HOUSE MOST SUCCESSFUL
AT JUNIOR HIGH
With great enthusiasm and anti-
cipation more than 500 parents of
Junior High pupils followed their
schedule from class to class last
Monday evening. For many it was
the first visit to the school and an
awaited opportunity to meet the
teachers. Through careful plan-
ning by the faculty an admirable
attempt was made to enlighten us
regarding the methods of teaching
and aims of the various subjects
taught in the seventh and eighth
grades.
Many thanks to all the Room
Mothers who made our name cards
and collected the voluntary dues
which were generously given.
After the last bell rang a
pleasant social period followed in
the gymnasium where cider and
doughnuts were served by: Mrs.
John Woodruff, Social Chairman,
assisted by Mrs. Albert Deitz, Mrs.
Howard Ulfelder and Mrs. William
Welden.
If you were unable to attend this
year and have an eighth grader
next year. Don’t Miss Open House!
Mrs. Carl Morton, President of
the Junior High Associates, wishes
to take this opportunity to thank
Mr. Raymond Hickman, Principal,
the teachers, the parents and the
Associates Board for their splendid
cooperation.

FALSE ALARMS
The fire department had three j
false alarms early Wednesday
morning, the first being rung at
1 :37 o’clock from Box 64 at the
corner of Highland avenue and!
Wilson street.
The second alarm at 1 :45 was
sounded from Box 34 at Cross and
Holton streets, and the third, at
1 :50, from Box 51 at the corner
of Cambridge and Pond streets.
Since all apparatus goes out on ;
box alarms the pulling of the boxes
was expensive as well as danger-
ous. The epidemic of false alarms
was not confined to Winchester,
others being rung the same morn-
ing both in Woburn and Reading.
Authorities of the three commu-
nities are investigating and it goes
without saying that they would
like to get their bunds on the guilty
parties.
The Fall Parade of Quartets to
be held by the Reading Chapter of
Barhershoppers at Shepardson Hall
of the junior high school on No-
vember 7, at 8:15 p. m., will feature
The Pacemakers Quartet from
Schenectady, N. Y. They are noted
for their smooth harmony in ren-
dering the old-time barbershop
songs.
For more barbershop pleasure
the program will include The Four
Harpooners from New Bedford,
1952 international semi-jina lists;
The Four Rascals, Salem, who
range in age from 9 to 13 years
and sing four-part harmony to per-
fection; The Needhamaires, a com-
edy quartet from Needham. In ad-
dition there will be The Windjam-
mers and the Bay Shore Four from
Lynn.
The Reading Barbershop Chorus
and Quartets will also participate
in the affair.

The Lesson-Sermon is entitled “Everlast-
ing Punishment." The Bible passages in-
clude the following verses from Proverbs:
“My son. despise nut the chastening of
the Lord, neither be weary of his correc-
tion : For whom the Lord loveth he cor-
recteth; even as n father the son in whom
he delightcth" (3:11,12).
Among the passages to bo read from
“Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy will be:
“Do you ask wisdom to be merciful nnd
not to punish sin 7 Then ‘ye ntik amiss’
Without punishment, sin would multiply
< 10:31-1 ).
The Golden Text is from James:
“Draw nigh to God. nnd he will draw
nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sin-
ners ; and purify your hearts, ye double
minded" (4:8).

On lawns, in woodlands, along
highway edges from Vermont to
Georgia and west to the Missis-
sippi, billions of tiny wormlike
creatures late this summer tumbled
to the ground from the tips of
twigs where they were hatched.
Each gray larva, no more than
one-twentieth of an inch long, has
buried itself in the soil. Some are
only a foot below the surface.
Others may be still digging and
will go down to ten or even twenty
feet.
When each feels that it is deep
enough to he safe from the frost,
it will hollow out a little cave —
perhaps a quarter of an inch across
— next to the root of a tree. The
cave will be its home, says the
National Geographic Society, and
the root will he its storehouse, for
the juice of tree roots is the pap
of baby cicadas or “17 - year
locusts.”
The larva will grow; it may even
move to another root, and it will
shed its skin several times before
next it sees the light of day — on
a soft May morning in 1970!
Suspended Drama
Thus, with the new generation of
Brood Ten — the Great Brood — of
periodic cicadas put to bed, one of
Nature’s longest and strangest
dramas of the insect world rings
down the curtain. There will be
revivals, as there have been from
time immemorial, but there are
never more than six revivals in a
century.
The 1953 appearance of the
locusts, hatched from eggs laid in
1936, came off as scheduled. Last
May, stirred by some mysterious
signal, as many as 30,000 cicada
nymphs emerged from the ground
in one night under a single large
oak tree. Stealthily, they moved
to the nearest bush or tree and
started to climb. Some reached the
high limbs but many more got only
part way up when the heed for one
last shedding of the skin seized
them.
Clinging to the bark with their
lobsterlike claws, the immature
cicadas pulsed rhythmically. The
old skins soon split down the hack
and out crawled the full grown 17-
year locusts. By morning, the
creamy-white creatures had turned
darw. Their eyes were red as fire
Their micalike wings — with the
characteristic black W at the base
which the superstitious say fore-
tells war — were dry and ready for
flight.
Sound of Drums
The abdominal drums sported by
the males were ready to begin their
tireless sounding of four quite dis-
tinct notes — the prolonged burr,
the “Pha-u-a-roah” which remind-
ed the Pilgrim Fathers of the
locust plagues of Egypt, the low
continuous purr, and the loud
squawk of surprise or fright.
And presently, after a brief sea-
son of clumsy flying and frolic, the
silent females were ready to lay
their 400 to 600 eggs. With single-
minded purpose, they sought out
the tender limb tips of their favor-
ite trees — oak, hickory, apple and
peach. With their sharp, two-
edged ovipositors they made a
series of gashes in the twigs and
laid ten to twenty white eggs in
each small gash. Exhausted from
their labors, they fell to the ground
or water, food for birds and squir-
rels or fish.
Now, at summer’s end, the eggs
laid last May and June have hatch-
ed. Earth itself will shelter and
nourish the young while a gener-
ation of men moves and passes
above them. And when Spring
comes in 1970, there will be for the
Great Brood of periodic cicadas a
not inglorious resurrection.
CASTERETS RESCUE WAS
RELIEF TO ’’CAVE MEN”
Speleologists evevywnere breath-
ed sighs of relief this summer when
Norhert Casteret, after anxious
hours, was brought safely out of
the earth s deepest known cave, the
2,395-foot. I.cpineux cavern near
Pierre St. Martin in the western
Pyrenees on the Franco-Spanish
border.
M. Casteret is a French speleol- !
ogist — cave explorer and expert
— well known in this country
through translations of his hooks,
and for illustrated articles publish-
ed in the National Geographic So-
ciety.
The first National Geographic
Magazine story by M. Casteret,
printed in August, 1924, announced
the finding, near the French village
of Montespan in the central Pyre-
nees, of the world’s oldest statues.
Clay figures of long extinct
animals, they were molded by Cro-
Magnon men and had lain hidden
for at least 20,000 years in a pitch
black cave M. Casteret reached
only by diving at great risk
through a flooded tunnel.
Another article appeared in
March, 1953, and described the
awesome ice caves of the Pyrenees,
galleries filled with glacier ice that
may have been formed in the dawn
of time. Nino thousand feet up in
the mountains, “Casteret Grotto”
and others the explorer found near
it are the highest known ice caves.
Speleology has long been a rec-
ognized science. In addition to es-
tablishing purely sporting records,
speleologists have done valuable
work in geology, anthropology,
biology and geography. They have
aided hydroelectric engineers and
influenced international relations.
Found Garonne Source
When Spain planned to divert a
subterranean river into an electric
generating plant, these daring men
explored underground to prove
their theory that the stream was
the source of the important Ga-
ronne River in France. Diversion
might have curtailed the Garonne’s
flow and affected the whole econ-
omy of its valley.
In Mammoth Cave, Kentucky,
and Carlsbad Caverns, New Mex-
ico, the United States has respec-
tively the largest and second lar-
gest caves thus far discovered.
Like most big caves everywhere,
they were formed by the dissolv-
ing action of slightiy acid water
upon limestone.
In the United States, cave hobby-
ists call themselves “spelunkers.”
No claustrophohes need apply for
membership in their societies, for
a true spelunker thinks little of
crawling long distances through
passages so narrow that movement
is only possible while the crawler’s
breath is exhaled.
For icy calm in such a passage,
M. Casteret furnished the classic
example. Ho had a head-on en-
counter with an irate badger, a
creature with dangerous teeth and
claws. Avoiding the panic that
might have tightened his muscles
and wedged him in the tunnel, the
speleologist coolly hacked out as
fast as he could, leaving the badger
in full charge of the passage.
AUSTRALIA MEASURES ITS
WORMS IN FEET AND POUNDS
In Australia, where odd Leasts
are the rule rather than the excep-
tion, even the lowly earthworm is
unique.
Of the world s 1,800 species of j
worms, the Australian Mcgasro - 1
lidos holds clear title as the world’s
largest, says the National Geogra-
phic Society. The giant crawlers
average four to six feet long and
occasionally span 1 1 feet. Some
are an inch thick nnd weigh a
pound or more.
Originally believed to exist only
in Victoria’s fertile Bass Valley,
the creatures have also been un-
covered recently in several sections
of Queensland. Naturalists ex-
cavated them from tunnels large
enough to house snakes and lizards.
Loud gurgles and weird bubbling
sounds beneath the ground first at-
tracted the scientists. The groans
are caused, they later discovered,
by contractions of the worm’s body
as it burrows into the soil.
Pulled from its hole, the crawler
is apt to break into numerous seg-
ments. But once unraveled to full
length above ground, its tough,
elastic skin is difficult to cut with
a knife. A muscular, bulbous head
used in locomotion nnd digging is
slightly fuller than the rest of the
body.
When captured, the giant worm
sprays jets of fluid like a leaky
hose. Secreted from dorsal pores,
the coelomic liquid is normally
used to lubricate the burrows for
easier passage. It also serves as
a defense against soil bacteria and
parasites.
Its cocoon or egg capsule,
measuring up to an inch and a half
in length, is glossy, sausage-
shaped, and olive brown in color.
Newly hatched worms are a mere
six inches long.
The giant worms are a favorite
food of the duck-hilled platypus,
another member of Australia’s
cross-word puzzle menagerie. The
platypus gulps down a half-dozen
Megaseolides at a sitting.
To make life at New York’s
Bronx Zoo worth while for three
platypuses brought from Australia
in 1947, the zoo staff developed the
world’s bigpest earthworm-breed-
ing farm in the cellar of the lion
house.
Proposals to import the Austra-
lian earthworm to America to help
fertilize farmlands have been
vetoed by United States author-
ities. They fear the giant may
carry plant diseases inside its body.

RALPH EDGAR HALL
Ralph Edgar Hall of 10 Elm

WINCHESTER WELLESLEY CLUB
The annual fall supper meeting
of the Winchester Wellesley Club
was held at the home of Mrs. Roger
Burton, 30 Oxford street, on Wed-
nesday, October 21st. Mrs. Ross
Cunningham was Chairman of the
supper committee,
Mrs. Wayne Davis, President of
the Club, presided at a business
meeting following tho supper. Mrs.
Burton reported on the Wellesley
College Development Fund and
said that the percentage of alum-
nae contributing to it from the
Winchester area ranked with the
highest from other sections of the
country.
Miss Ruby Willis, Treasurer of
the Wellesley College Student’s
Aid Society, was a guest of the
Club, and gave a most interesting,
informal talk on the function of
this organization. She sketched
briefly the historical background of
the Society which originated in
1878 and was incorporated in 1916,
as a channel for alumnae giving.
She emphasized that Student’s Aid
is intended to supplement scholar-
ships, not replace them, and told of
various ways in which this is done.
Not only are outright gifts of
money made, but also loans, re-
payable two years after the stu-
dent graduates. In addition Stu-
dent’s Aid operates a Clothes
Closet where students may obtain
clothing, as well as textbooks, bed
linen and other necessary supplies.
In closing, Miss Willis said that
the Winchester Wellesley Club
could well be proud of its long
history of generous support of
Student’s Aid.

TOWN MEETING
SUPPORTS SELECTMEN
(Continued from Page 1)
At the March meeting of 1952 the
town voted to approve the Select-
men s proposal to eliminate the
Grade Crossing by raising the
tracks and empowered the Select-
men to cooperate to this end with
State and County officials. A ref-
erendum failed to set aside this
limited town meeting vote, and the j
Selectmen then petitioned the State
Department of Public Works to,
eliminate the crossing by raising
the tracks, studios were begun and
the firm of Thomas Worcester re-
tained.
Mr. Greer snid that the basic en-
gineering for the project is com-
plete, though many details of de-
sign are unfinished, and last minute
changes on the job will of necessity
ho made. Adding that the present
plan is not perfect, he maintained
it represents the best efforts of i
many engineers in the Department
of Public Works and the Worcester t
Company.
After his historical review Mr.
wWr devoted much time to an ex-
planation of the slides showing
present conditions and proposed
changes, notably at Wcdgemcre, at
the center crossing and at Swnnton
street. The meeting recessed after |
he concluded.
Mr. Volpe, State Commissioner
of Public Works, congratulated Mr.
Greer upon his presentation and ex-
planation of the elimination plan.
Originally among the doubters and
Those who believe a better plan can
l)e found, Mr. Volpe said a review
of past and present plans for elim-
ination has convinced him tho
present plan, calling for raising the
tracks, is sound.
He did feel, he said, that the plan
as first presented was only about
two-thirds complete since it omit-
ted a solution to the through traffic
problem on Route 38.
The traffic by- pass through the
Skillings estate is the answer to
this omission in the original plan,
and this by-pass should, he said, be
completed at the same time, or, if
possible, before the raising of the
tracks.
Mr. Volpe said the entire project
entails a minimum of displacement
of houses and families which is rare
in projects of such magnitude. He
also briefly explained the procedure
by which the State Right of Way
Division will take the land needed
for the project. The final result,
Mr. Volpe said, will he an asset to
tho town, both from the point of
view of beauty as well as safety.
Chairman George Redding of the
Finance Committee stated that the
Committee feels the Selectmen
have done a wonderful job of nego-
tiating for the elimination project,
and that $190,000 can safely he
taken from the Excess and Defi-
ciency Account without jeopardiz-
ing the financing of the needed
school buildings.
Mr. Hewis asked under what sec-
tions of Statue law the funds for
this project will be taken. Mr.
John McCluskey of the D. P. W.
was introduced to answer him, but
asked Commissioner Volpe to reply.
Mr. Volpe said that the funds will
he bond issue funds authorized by
1952 legislation which provided
200 million dollars for highway
projects in the state.
Mr. Wakefield decried the Star’s
lack of publicity which should have
been provided so that the average
voter could have had time to assi-
milate this tremendous project. He
reviewed the cost of forthcoming
school building projects and said
that, in his opinion, it was unfor-
tunate that the grade crossing pro-
ject should he brought in before the
town’s No. 1 problem, that of new
schools, has been solved.
He asked why the Boston and
Maine has not been asked to re-
move its freight-switching oper-
ations from the center, thus great-
ly reducing the time during which
the gates have to be down, and said
he believed the voters are entitled
to the opportunity of voting on a
complete alternate plan for cross-
ing elimination as well as the one
presently submitted by the Select-
men.
“It is shamefully unfair” he said,
“for the State of Massachusetts
to presume thnt it has 6 to 10 mil-
lion dollars to spend on a purely
local project,” and he asked the
members to reject “this Trojan
horse that is being dragged into
the square.” Mr. Wakefield’s mo-
tion to postpone any action on the
grade crossing until the projects
for needed school buildings are
completely financed, was voted
down by the meeting.
Mrs. McDonald next took the
microphone (a procedure rare for
her!) to ask if that motion, just de-
feated could he added to the refer-
endum if the ayes and noes were
not recorded. Town Council Clarke
answered that in any event Mr.
Wakefield’s motion could not he in-
cluded in the referendum vote.
Mr. Hewis noted that the propos-
ed street changes have not been ac-
cepted by the Planning Board, ns
required by law; and he moved that
the subject matter of Article 1 he
referred to the Planning Board and
acted on by them. Admiral Burac-
kcr, former Commissioner of Public
Works, rose to say that the town
will never again have an oppor-
tunity such as this to get this pro-
ject done. Mr. Hewis’ vote was
defeated.
Mrs. Woodside asked the Finance
Committee how the town can fin-
ance the school program at the
same time it spends this $190,000,
hut Mr. Redding considered that
the question wns irrelevant to tho
main discussion, noting that he be-
lieved both were within the town’s
means.
Former County Commissioner
James Cullen expressed his hope
that the town meeting members
would make the vote in favor of the
project as near 100% as possible.
Mrs. McDonald, in reviewing
past votes on the grade crossing
elimination project, said that, al-
though the 1952 town meeting had
voted 151 to 1 in favor of raising
the tracks, the referendum had
found 1,700 voters, or 34 per cent of
the votes east, in opposition. The
proposed overhead railroad, she
said, will ruin the old plains section
of the town, nnd went into some de-
tail in explaining the harm which
changes to Swanton street will
cause to the residents of that area.
Her request to the Moderator to
permit the people in the hall who
were opposed to the project to
stand was courteously denied. Mrs.
McDonald asked Mr. Greer why the
sum of $190,000 is being taken
from Excess and Deficiency, rather

Mr. Hood has been a member of
the Board of Directors since 1948
and has been Vice-President since
1949. He has been closely connect-
ed with the building program and
all activities since he became a Dir-
ector. In accepting his election he
stated that with the recent comple-
tion of the building program a new
era opens in the life and activities
of the Hospital and that expanding
opportunities lie ahead for greater
service to the people of Winchester
and surrounding communities. He
expressed confidence that with the
continued cooperation of the many
men and women now connected
with its work and of its countless
other friends, the hospital will rise
to new heights of service and will
become an ever increasing factor in
administering to the health require-
ments of the residents of Winches-
ter and its neighboring towns.

than being raised by a bond issue.
He replied that the Excess nnd De-
ficiency Account has been built up
in recent years, partly with the
grade crossing elimination in mind.
Mrs. Woodside said that the town
fathers are suffering from “dollar
delirium”, that never once do they
mention the human equation in this
matter. She stated that the D. P.
W. would have given the town any
plan that the people wanted and
added that at a hearing before the
legislative committee last year the
Selectmen promised that an alter-
nate plan and a statement of costs
! would be presented to the town.
Mr. Bonnell, of the Planning
! Board expressed his indignation at
the reflections east upon town
boards and the implication thnt
they are not acting in the interest
of the citizens as they see it. He
stated that the D. P. W. did make
a study of alternate plans, includ-
ing an automobile overpass nnd
noted in this connection that the
traffic circles would have required
an unreasonable amount of land-
taking. He asked if it were not
significant that every Board of Se-
lectmen, many of whom were doubt-
ful in the beginning, came to sup-
port the overhead tracks plan
unanimously.
Mrs. Warren Whitman asked
why the auto by-pass could not be
elevated, and nut in without raising
the tracks to sec if it alo^o will
sufficiently aid the traffic jam in
the center. Mr. Greer replied that
raising the overpass would entail
an excessive rate of grade on the
Blind Bridge end of the overpass.
Replying to Mrs. Whitman’s
question regarding the danger to
pedestrians at the proposed traffic
circle between the Town Hall and
the Baptist Church, Mr. Greer stat-
ed that traffic lights would be in-
stalled there if they proved neces-
sary. Provisions are also being
made for the installation of lights
in the center, should they be need-
ed there.
Mr. Volpe stated that the Win-
chester grade crossing elimination
has been placed number 2 on the
list, second to Lincoln Square in
Worcester.
Mr. Hewis questioned the word-
ing of the motion of the article,
asking why it should read “Board
of Selectmen or the Chairman.”
Town Counsel Clarke replied that
he was only complying with the
law in the wording of the motion.
Following the re-reading of the
motion at the request of Mrs.
Woodside a standing vote of the
town meeting was taken. At its
conclusion, Mr. Earl Smith rose to
say that though he was among the
opposition on the issue of raising
the tracks, he wanted it made clear
that no one questioned the honesty
and sincerity of Mr. Bonnell’s ac-
tions in supporting the project.
AT THE
"PARISIAN MARKET PLACE"
Louise Cullen has become n fa-
miliar figure to those who pass her
way, Her cheerful smile has bright-
ened the day foi many, and the
neighborhood children time and
again come to look for the pretty
lady who paints by hor window.
Little do these folks realize the
painful ordeal Louise faces daily
as she arises from her bed to make
her way to her work table, for she
has been fighting for twenty-four
years a courageous battle against
that insidious disease, rheumatoid
arthritis.
With indomitable spirit and
persistence, Louise graduated from
the Malden High School with hon-
or, without ever having set foot
inside the school. She is a talented
writer, and has had three of her
stories published. Unselfishly and
at times enduring considerable
pain, she did her utmost for the
Red Cross, as long as she was able,
working in the office and assisting
at the Bedford Hospital.
Louise had hoped to attend class-
es at the Vesper George School of
Art, where her drawings had been
accepted. However, with tho en-
couragement of ner doctors and
the inspiration of Marguerite Pear-
son, prominent Rockport artist,
Louise has continued to paint at
home. Although she can no longer
work on large oil paintings or
portraits, her skill comes into play
in turning out beautiful brooches^
More recently, in fact, during thr
past months, Louise has painted
over four hundred exceedingly ex-
quisite Nativity figurines for "The
Parisian Market Place,” the annual
bazaar of the First Congregational
Church, taking place on Novombor
4. The delicate and patient hand-
ling of her brush and her outstand-
ing sense of color values are ap-
parent in the garments nnd faces
of the Three Wise Men, and her
innate tenderness, gentle spirit and
| religious devotion arc subtly ex-
pressed in Mary, Joseph and the
Christ Child.
Of this work, Louise comments,
“It was a very gratifying pastime.”
And though Louise paints with
but the use of two fingers of hor
right hand, she is hopeful that her
work may provide a means of as-
sistance to her widowed mother,
whose untiring care and loving de-
votion have enabled Louise to car-
ry on these manv years.
Your $1.80 gift to Rod Feather
will buy six pairs of socks for any
youngster in the protective custody
of a Red Feather children’s agency.
Add $.20 to that, and you’ll have
bought the child a tooth brush.

TROOP 6 IN HIGH GEAR
MYSTIC SCHOOL STAFF
ENTERTAINED
The Mystic School staff and Mrs.
Lorraine Forte were the guests on
Friday evening, October 23rd, of
Miss Lydia Whittemore, Mystic
third-grade teacher, at her home
in Melrose.
Mrs. Margaret McLean, sixth-
grade teacher at Mystic, showed
over 100 slides of beautiful pictures
which she took this past summer
while on a 10,000-mile motor trip
through the West with her family.
Those who had taken a similar trip
in the past welcomed many familiar
views with enthusiasm. The rest of
the guests live in hopes of seeing
the real thing some day.
Later everyone enjoyed a most
delicious buffet supper, with Mrs.
Forte pouring. The menu consisted
of welsh rarebit, deviled eggs, po-
tato chips, pickles, coffee and home-
made apple pie a la mode. This
was the second social activity en-
joyed this fall by the Mystic School
personnel.
FOLK MUSIC EVENING
The Children’s Own School will
present an evening of Folk Music
on Friday, November 20, at eight
o’clock in Masonic Hall. The affair
is for the benefit of the School’s
Building Fund. Mrs. Leonard
Wolsky, of Woburn, who accom-
panies herself on the zither, will
sing English, Irish and American
folk songs, as well as a few repre-
sentative selections in French,
Italian and German. Many of the
songs are interesting, not only for
their charming music, but because
they have a historical or socio-
logical background, and the fre-
quent humor and warmth present
in most folk music lends the pro-
gram a pleasant feeling of infor-
mality. Mrs. Wolsky has appeared
on television and radio, as well as
before various clubs and women’s
organizations.
Refreshments will he served at
the close of the evening.

DR. WHEELER TO BE
ASSOCIATED WITH DR. MUELLER
COLLISION IN NORTH END
Announcement is being made
this week of the association of Dr.
Harold J. Wheeler with Dr. Harry
L. Mueller in the practice of pedia-
trics at 31 Church street. Dr.
Wheeler, a graduate of Boston Uni-
versity School of Medicine in 1947,
received his specialized training in
pediatrics at the Colorado Univer-
sity Medical Center and The Chil-
dren’s Hospital of Denver, and, like
Dr. Mueller, plans to give a portion
of his time to the Children’s Hos-
pital in Boston for clinic work.
lie comes to Winchester from j
Boise, Idaho, where he served 2
years as a pediatrician in the Air
Force. He and his wife, the former
Priscilla E. Howard of Winchester,
and three children are residing at
280 Highland avenue.
Sunday morning shortly after :
9:30 a Ford sedan driven by Mrs.
Frances M. Sellito of 17 Linden
street, while headed south on Syl-
vester avenue at the intersection of !
Canal and Middlesex streets, was
in collision with a Chevrolet sedan,
driven by Mrs. Cora Hcssion of 19
Lochwan street and turning left
into Middlesex street after pro- 4
ceeding west on Canal street.
Both machines were damaged,
the Ford having to he towed away.
No injuries were reported.
Winchester Boy Scout Troop 6 is
now in High Gear — Regular Mon-
day night meetings were commend-
ed at the Unitarian Church Hall in
I September and since then things
have been rapidly gaining momen-
I turn.
With 43 boys registered in all,
there arc now many new scouts in
the troop.
Scout Master Mr. Emmons S.
Ellis of 14 Hillside avenue and
his able Assistant Mr. “Bob” Fla-
herty of 469 Main street have been
very busy getting the new Patrols
organized along with the many
other regular scout “activities”.
One Saturday over 20 of the
boys, mostly tenderfeet, took a 10
mile hike through the woods to the
Sheepfold and there cooked their
noon-day meal, plenty of hot ham-
burgers, franks, fried potatoes,
beans, etc., were the order of the
day. This was taken on a beautiful
sunny day, the mounted trooper
was encountered along the ‘trail’
and gave the boys some helpful
directions. Mr. Bill Macdonald of
42 Canterbury road, father of one
of the newest members went along
and reported that he was perhaps
a little more tuckered-out than
some of the youngsters. A map
reading session and games were
enjoyed at intervals.
Another week-end Boh Flaherty
took some of the Patrol Leaders in-
to the woods on a short canoe and
over-night camping trip to acquaint
them with some of the essentials in
wood-craft, etc., so that they might
be better able to impart to the
younger members this valuable in-
formation. As the hoys progress
in knowledge and years it is hoped
that eventually all of them will
have enjoyed a few of these canoe
excursions.
Just recently about 20 of the
scouts went to Camp Ted, Wal-
tham, with Scout Master Ellis, tak-
ing along full regalia for an over-
night Camp Out, cooking uten-
sils, food, bedding, tents, etc., were
all packed to the site and the hoys
settled down for a real experience.
There were no mishaps. The gen-
eral conduct was reported as good.
The Troop has been organized
into Patrols, with such names as,
Flying Eagle, Snake, Hawk, Rang-
er, Pioneer.
This past week, a meeting of the
Scout Parents was called and a new
slate of officers was elected for the
coming year.
Mr. William McLeod (Bill) Mac-
donald as Chairman.
Mr. Leslie W. Doten of 52 Lo-
rena road as Treasurer.
Mr. Ralph H. Pingree of 50 Al-
ben road as Secretary.
At the meeting of the Committee
Mr. Bill Hopkins, retiring Chair-
man; Allan Adams, retiring Treas-
urer assisted nobly in the installa-
tion of the new men and offered
their good advices for and during
the ensuing year.
Mr. Darrel A. Root of 14 Win-
throp street, volunteered to attend
the Regional Council Meeting and
report hack to the Troop as to what
is going on in Scout Headquarters. |
Mr. John E. Hart of 6 Priscilla
lane will work with “Les” Doten
during the next month, in connec-
tion with the regular Troop Meet-
ings.
Mr. Charles Gauthier of Lloyd
street and Mr. Charles Cunha of 14
Clearwater road, have been ap-
pointed to the Publicity Commit-
tee.
Mr. Salvatore Scalesse of 37 Al-
len road, Mr. George A. Niles of 11
Madison avenue west, and Mr.
Addison J. Becker of 10 Perkins
road, are current members of the
Father’s Committee and plan to
take an active interest.
All of this should add up to a
fine year of Scouting and lias al-
ready generated a keen interest
among the hoys.
The hoys in the Troop and their
parents would like to take this
opportunity to express to Mr. Rob-
ert Storer, minister, and the mem-
bers of the Unitarian Church, their
sincere appreciation for use of
the facilities, kindly extended to
the Troop year after year.

GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES
AND BRIEFS
Only one person was injured
when a Mack truck and three auto-
mobiles were involved in a colli-
sion at the intersection of Lake and
Main streets last Saturday morn-
ing.
According to police the truck
owned by C. E. Hall & Sons of
Somerville and being driven south
on Main street by Nicholas Barras-
so of 477 Meridian street, East
Boston, was in collision to the
north of Lake street with a Ply-
mouth sedan owned and being driv-
en north on Main street by Charles
O \ eil of 23rd street, Woburn.
The impact of the collision drove
the Plymouth into an Oldsmobile
sedan owned by Paul Carroll of
120 Appleton street, Cambridge,
which was parked at the easterly
curb of Main street facing north.
After colliding with the Ply-
mouth the truck swerved sharply
to the left, striking the rear left
side and trunk of another Plymouth
sedan, owned by Thaddeus Max-
well, Jr., of 101 Grove street, Read-
ing, which was parked behind the
Olds.
Continuing across the easterly
sidewalk of Main street, the truck
crashed into and broke down a
wooden fence on the property of
Florence DeCelles, 723 Main street,
and finally came to a stop with its
body across the sidewalk and its
front end suspended on a stone wall
on the DeCelles property.
Only O’Neil was injured in the
collision and he was not badly hurt.
He was taken to the Choate Memo-
rial Hospital in Woburn and treat-
ed by Dr. Vincent Dirago, later be-
ing discharged. All the vehicles in-
volved in the accident were dam-
aged.
A few years before the American
Revolution a whaling brig of New
Bedford, Massachusetts, was named

TIME FOR DECISION
ELIMINATION OF GRADE CROSSING AND
CONSTRUCTION OF TRAFFIC BY-PASS
The Town Meeting of October 22, 1953, voted 1 13 to 23 to transfer $190,000
from available funds to pay Winchester’s entire share of the cost of the com-
bined crossing elimination and traffic by-pass. A referendum will be held later
this month to see whether a majority of our citizens agree with their elected
representatives on this vital issue.
The basic plan is not new and lias been approved repeatedly in the past,
even without the feature of the traffic by-pass.
A history' of the grade crossing problem, and of the various plans which
have been put forward since 1831 to solve it. appears in a special report of
the Selectmen issued in connection with the April 1952 referendum and re-
printed on page 305 of the most recent (1952) Town Reports.
The principal events leading up to the present referendum have been as
follows :
1. March 191-1 l uaiiinious sense of the meeting vote of the town meeting
that “the public security and convenience require the abolition of the grade
crossing at the center; and that the Selectmen are requested to take such steps
a** in their judgment will provide the speedy adoption of a suitable plan of
abolition ...” and the unanimous vote appropriating $2,500 for the use of the
Selectmen in procuring engineering assistance for that purpose.
2. November 19-15 Public Hearing at which those present voted 436 in
favor of raising the tracks tin accordance with the recommendation of the Se-
lectmen's consulting engineer) against a total of eight in favor of either of the
other principal plans, involving diversionary highways only.
3. August 1950 Decision of the Department of Public \\ ork*. an-
nounced hy Commissioner William F. Callahan, to eliminate the \\ inchestcr
Grade Crossing by raising the tracks.
1. March 1952 151 to 1 vote of the town meeting members approving the
State’s plan to raise the tracks and directing the Selectmen to continue their
negotiations with the Department of Public Works.
5. April 1952 Referendum of April 1952, upholding town meeting action
to raise tracks by a vote of 3,120 to 1,724 — almost a 2 to 1 majority.
0. October 1953 — The same project (plus a traffic by-pass from the inter-
section of Washington and Mt. Vernon Streets to II 1 i fid Rridge Street and Main
Street north of the center) approved hy town meeting 1 13 to 23, with total
cost to W inchestcr only $190,000.
7. November 1953 — Further referendum to he scheduled.
No plan until now has been able to gather sufficient support to he realized.
I In* present plan has had the unanimous support of all of the Hoards of
Selectmen and Planning Hoards who have dealt with it and the very strong
approval of all the public hearings and town meetings which have voted on it.
W e hope that our fellow citizens will \>ork for it now and vote for it at the
coming referendum m» that Winchester's century-old grade crossing problem
can finally In- solved.

ly pleased with prospects as they
were explained.
Mr. Greer stated that no project
for public betterment can he car-
ried out without hurting some one,
and lii Board realizes that the pro-
posed depression of Swanton street
is going to create a greatly changed
neighborhood in the Spruce street
location.
The Board is, however, concerned
to change the neighborhood ns lit-
tle as possible and to do as little
actual harm as possible to the least
number of persons.
He explained that residents of
the district had been invited to the
meeting to express any dissatisfac-
tion they had with the plans as
they have progressed to date, and
to make any suggestions that will
make the project less objectionable
to them.
Mr. Barker of the Worcester
Company was at the hearing and
answered many questions as well
as listening to a number of sugges-
tion- from unhappy residents. Sev-
eral of the suggestions he felt
might well be incorporated into the
plans which are as yet unfinished.
Mr. Greer assured the residents
that any further suggestions they
may care to make to improve the
layout of Swanton street in their
opinion may he presented to the
Board and will receive careful con-
sideration.
The meeting lasted for about
three hours, during which plans
were studied and general discus-
sions held. One of those who ex-
pressed considerable dissatisfac-
tion with the present plan was Mr.
Amico, the baker, whose bakery
would he made far less accessible
to • evident s.
The entire Board of Selectmen
attended the hearing as did Har-
rison Lyman, former Selectman and
present secretary of the Planning

DR. VALLEY PROMOTED
RECENT BIRTHS
TO REMEMBER FOREVER
On Armistice Day this year there
is great cause for thankfulness.
The shooting is over in Korea,
prisoners of war, American boys
held captive in enemy hands, have
come home at last. Our gratitude
for their safe return mingles with
our tears for those who will never
hear the “cease fire” order.
Our hearts are full of sympathy
for mothers, wives nnd children of
thousands who have expended their
all for us here at home. We must
never forget Americans who have
sacrificed to keep America strong
and free. It is little enough for us,
safe and alive, living in the great-
est country on earth, breathing
free air, enjoying the privileges of
freedom, it is little enough for u*
to keep reminding ourselves of the
meuning of America to our men
• and women overseas. Our memorial
is in our hearts forever.

The Board of Selectmen will
meet Saturday to set the date for
the referendum to be held on the
vote of the recent special town
meeting, appropriating $190,000 as
the town’s share of the $6,000,000
project to eliminate the grade
crossing by raising the railroad
tracks through Winchester, and
authorizing the Selectmen, or
chairman of the Board, to enter in-
to definite agreements with the
State or other interested parties
to bring about elimination by this
means.
Referendum petitions were cir-
culated immediately following the
meeting, and the petitions were
filed with the Board of Selectmen
last week Thursday. Two hundred
and fifty names were necessary,
and the Registrars of Voters
checked 323 with many more ap-
pended to the petitions. It is es-
timated that over 500 voters sign-
ed the papers.
Under the law the Selectmen
must set a date for the referendum
within 14 days of the meeting at
which the petition is considered.
That would mean that the referen-
dum vote must he held not later
than Saturday, November 21. There
has been some feeling that the Sat-
urday date would he a good time
since many do not work on Satur-
day.
Complicating the date setting is
the fact that there are two special
town meetings to he held on No-
vember 12 and 16, to consider the
report of the Committee for addi-
tional facilities for the high and
junior high schools, and the Park-
hurst School addition committee.

project operated hy the Institute
for the Department of Defense, Dr.
Julius A. Stratton, Provost, an-
nounced last night.

terest because. Dr. Valley is

Dr. Valley received the degrees of
bachelor of science at M. I. T., in
1935 and doctor of philosophy at

versity as a research assistant
(1939-40) and as a National Re-
search Fellow (1940-41).
In 1941, Dr. Valley joined the
staff of M. I. T.’s Radiation Labor-
atory and later served as Technical
Editor of the Laboratory’s Office of
Publications.

sociate professor in 1949, he has
specialized in nuclear physics and
cosmic radiation.

THE WINCHESTER, MASS., STAR, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6. 1953
M. I. A. C. FOOTBALL RATINGS
STARTLE COACHES AND FANS
Lnat week, without preliminary
warning or notiro, the Massachu-
setts Intel scholastic Athletic Coun-
cil (advisory group of the head-
masters’ association) published in
the Boston papers a radical plan
for the reclassification of the high
school football teams of eastern
Massachusetts. While a great
many interested fans will agree
that the system of ratings inaugu-
rated by the Sports Writers and in
use for several years now, is far
from perfect, the immediate re-
action to the new system proposed
by the M. 1. A. C. has been wide-
spread nnd all but violent. From
coaches in many schools affected
have come expressions of conster-
nation, of scorn, of ridicule, of dis-
belief, of bewilderment, of amuse-
ment, of disgust, of anguish.
Conches of schools suddenly ele-
vated from lowly ('lass C ratings
to Class A prominence shuddered
at the unwelcome honor and longed
for the comfortable obscurity of a
much humbler rating. Of course,

most of the howls of anguish came
from the coaches whose teams were
elevated to higher classifications.
For example, when Stoneham High
School was promoted from Class C
to Class A, Tony PeTeso’s shrieks
could have been heard in South
Boston.
After rending all the pros nnd
cons on the subject, one is tempted
to wonder whether any classifica-
tion is necessary or even useful, and
whether both of the proposed classi-
fications do not present a false pic-
ture of the relative ability of the
teams rated. Unless a Class B
team, for example, plays all other
teams in its class (which is ob-
viously impossible) how can it pos-
sibly be rated as ('lass B cham-
pion? Perhaps the result of this
whole controversy may be the re-
vival of more football leagues
among groups of natural rivals.

Not being one of the contestants
this week it gave me an opportu-
nity to classify in my way the dif-
ferent styles of howling.
Some of the outstanding ones
are as follows:
No. 1 The Ballerina
One who skips, hops and dances
and lets the ball go and ends up
on one foot.
No. 2 The Jacknife
One who bends at the waist in a
forty-five degree angle and looks
at the pins through his eyebrows
before the ball rolls.
No. 3 The Stargazer
One who looks to the heavens
after the ball is gone looking for
an answer ns to where the ball
went.
No. 4 The Prayer
One who falls on his knees pray-
ing for a good hit as the hall goes.
No. 5 The Rattler
One who ends up shaking his
head wondering what happened.
No. <: The Halfback
One who stands back at the soda
fountain and runs as fast as his
legs can go and darn near kills him-
self at the rubber stop.
No. 7 The Creeper
One who creeps up the runway
and at the last possible moment
whips the ball down the alley.
No.* 8 The Stamper
One who lets the ball go and
hopes to get an assist on the pinfall
by stamping his feet.
When it’s your turn to sit out
just enjoy the circus.
Well it had to come some day,
the battle between “Ballerina
Curly Locks Chic’s” team and
“Prayer Corrigador” and his chil-
dren. It was a good battle and ex-
citement was high for the lead
changed sides many times. But the
old men did themselves justice for
they held the kids in a nip and tuck
battle down to the wire to a 2 and 2
split. Thanks also is to he given
to two other men on “Ballerina
Chic’s” team. One man of God-
frey humility “Stargazer Mingy”
and also “Jacknife Joe Tofuri”.
I also noticed in my travels
“Creeper Gene Rotundi” still trying
to keep up with the youngsters.
In my opinion this year equals
in enthusiasm and excitement the
year of the band concert and free
cigars.
Dodo DiTesso was the lucky
winner of the usual Wednesday
night raffle. Be sure you buy a
ticket as yours may be the lucky
one next week.
See you next week.
“Stu” Thomson, football and bas-
ketball star at Winchester High
last year, is first-string quarter-
back on the Williston Academy
football team, which lias enjoyed
an unbeaten season thus far this
fall. Williston plays its final game
Saturday at home with Deerfield
and it wouldn’t be at all surprising
if the “Rod” Thomsons of Fells
road, father, mother, sister and kid
brother, “Dodger Doug,” were in
the Williston stands watching big,
blond “Stu” in action!

WINCHESTER WRECKS READING
REGULARS AND SCRUBS
DISPLAY AGGRESSIVE
# TEAM WORK
Tn n one-sided contest, marked
however by an unusual nuni be i of
spectacular individual performan-
ces on both sides, Winchester’s
steadily improving football ma-
chine trnmpled over Reading last
Saturday afternoon at Manchester
Field by the score of 30 to G. Read-
ing’s lone touchdown came as the
result of a dazzling return ^ of a
kickoff caught on Reading s 10
yard line by Tom Murray, whose
speed nnd footwork enabled him to
race through the entire Winches-
ter team (second and third-string
players) for ninety yards to pay-
dirt.
Winchester gave the well- filled
stands an exhibition of striking
power, alertness, and improved
line play, combined with n revela-
tion of depth at every position.
Against a weaker-than-average
Reading eleven, Coach Knowlton
was able to throw fifty-one boys
into the game and a few of those
boys who have been warming the
bench in previous games wasted no
time in showing that they appre-
ciated the chance to show their
wares.
In spite of the one-sided score,
the game was far from colorless.
For Reading, Tom Murray and
Eddie Stanton gave their support-
ers more than one or two thrills
with their ability to penetrate the
Winchester line on several occa-
sions and their excellent open-field
running. Only last-minute tackles
by the safety man prevented these
two good ball-carriers from scor-
ing. And speaking of safety men,
perhaps in Joe Bellino, Winchester
has one of the best. Incidentally,
young Mr. J. Murphy of the scrubs
came up with two hard tackles to
prevent Reading ball carriers from
scoring against the Seconds.
An incomplete list of the game-
highlights from the Winchester
point of view would have to include
the following:
J i m m y Haggerty’s brilliant
bursts through the Reading line on
delayed cross-bucks for two touch-
down runs of 35 and 40 yards
respectively, while only the slippery
turf and momentary loss of balance
prevented him from a third, as he
, penetrated the Reading forward
I wall to find himself free with no
one in front of him.
Mike Murphy’s G5-yard end run
to the Reading 2 yard line. Like a
Mack Truck in high gear, Mike
ploughed through the opposition,
using a beautiful straight-arm to
eliminate one would-be tackier and
dragging another five or ten yards
before being dragged down. If
Mike can keep that straight-arm
working, he’ll continue cluttering
up opponents’ backfields with frus-
trated tacklers from now on.
Joe Bellino’s adroitness in re
covering a fumbled kick-off in the
midst of three Reading tacklers
and eluding their grasp to race 52
yards for a touchdown.
McLaughlin’s 33-yard burst
through tackle for a score after be-
ing stopped on the same play on
the previous down. Also his smooth
handling of a fifteen yard pass
from Ross and run of 24 yards to
the end zone.
The line’s play in opening up
wide holes for those cross-bucks by
Haggerty and McLaughlin. On ail
three touchdown runs not a Read
ing player laid a hand on the ball
carrier.
The recovery of six Reading
fumbles by alert Winchester play
ers. And the forcing of ten Read-
ing fumbles by aggressive line play
throughout the game.
Outstanding individual work in
the line by Jim Cusack. This vet
eran has played a stellar game all
season, but in the thick of the
scrimmage his work is often un-
noticed.
Good quarter-hacking by young
Bill Ross, who showed good judg-
ment in calling plays, passed with
precision, and punted well.
Fine individual plays by J. Mur
phy, Quill, and Gould.
Above all, real teamwork by the
whole squad.
We are not attempting to imply
that mistakes were not made or
that Winchester has suddenly come
up with a miracle team or a world-
beater. But there is no question
that Coach Knowlton and his as-
sistants have fashioned a rugged
and steadily improving machine,
from the first stringers down to the
last substitute. Remembering that
Winchester started the season with
only two regulars from last year’s
great team, one is impressed with
the way in which this year’s team
has developed from week to week.
And it will get better. Right now
the question in the minds of the

to rate an even chance against
Wakefield on November 14th and
against Woburn on Thanksgiving
Day. We believe it will.
Between the halves of the game
Reading’s hand and Drum Major-
ettes put on a colorful exhibition.
And Winchester’s band, the best we
have seen this year or are likely to
see, entertained with some tricky
new steps. Ted Bartlett’s con-
tribution over the loud speaker
from the tower behind the Win-
chester stands was appreciated by
all who were able to hear him above
the noise of the cheering crowd.
Steps will be taken to improve the
speaking system so that in the final
two home games • Mr. Bartlett’s
melodious voice may reach the ears
of all.
PLAY BY PLAY ACCOUNT OF
THE GAME
Reading won the toss and elected
to receive at the south goal. Rior-
dan kicked off to Tom Murray, who
carried from the 5 yard line to the
11. Talbot made a yard at left tac-
kle. Murray hit right guard for 7,
and Stanton made a first down on
the 27.
Held for three downs for no gain,
Stanton punted on 4th down from
his 17 yard line to the Winchester
35, where the ball was declared
dead. •
Murphy slipped on the wet turf
for no gain, and Bellino lost a yard
on a cross buck. On third down
Murphy tried left end and would
have been in the clear if Mantini
had not missed a block on the only
Reading man in a position to stop
him. Bellino punted short to the
Reading 47.
Murray was held for no gain in
a line buck. A back field fumble
was recovered by Reading on the
39 for an eight yard loss. Talbot
threw a long pass over his re-
ceiver’s head on third down, and
then punted to Bellino on the Win-
chester 30. Joe brought the hall
hack to the 40.
Bellino made 3 yards at right
tackle. Haggerty on a cross buck
made 13 yards, and if he had not
stumbled could have gone all the
way. Bellino on a pitchout was
held for no gain. Murphy on the
same play lost 4 yards. Pratt’s
pass over the line was intercepted
by Talbot of Reading on the Read-
ing 32 yard line.
Stanton made 8 yards through
the line, was held for no gain on
the next play, and Reading fumbled
on third down, the ball being re-
covered by O’Brien on the Reading
35 yard lino.
On first down, Haggerty on a
cross-buck scored with a 35 yard
run through a wide opening at left

Riordan kicked off to Murray,
i who took the ball on his 10 yard
t line and carried to his 45, only to
: have the play nullified by an ofT-
! side penalty against Reading. On
| the next kiek-ofT by Riordan Mur- 1
ray fumbled the hall on his 19 and
it rolled out-of-bounds at that point.
On first down, Murray picked up
9 yards to the 28. On a pitch-out
Murray lost three and the first
quarter ended. On third down
j Stanton made 2 and on 4th down
on its own 27, with 2 yards to go
for a first down, Reading punted to
I Bellino, who fumbled momentarily
and then picked up the loose ball
and ran 52 yards for a score. Rior-
dan kicked the extra point. Score:
Winchester 13, Reading 0.
Riordan kicked off to Stanton
who took the ball on his 15 yard
line and ran it back to the 43, but a
clipping penalty against Reading
brought the ball back to the 19 yard
line.
On first down, Murray skirted
right end for 31 yards and a first
down on the 50. Stanton made 0 at
left guard and Murray made an-
other first down on the Winchester
37. Stanton found a hole at left
guard and carried for a first down
on the 25. On the next play, Dat-
tilo recovered a Reading fumble on
the 20.
Murphy made only one yard on
a line buck. Bellino lost 0 on a
pitchout. Pratt got back only 3
yards on an off-tackle play, and
Bellino punted to the Reading 20
yard line, where the ball was de-
clared dead.
Gaining only 8 yards on three
line plays, Reading was forced to

PARKHURST SCHOOL NEWS
Fifth tirade Tea
A tea was held on Tuesday af-
ternoon at the home of Mis. Wil-
liam Morton, 38 Arlington street,
for Mrs. Ann White, the fifth-grade
teacher, and Miss Martha V. Cun-
ningham.
Mrs. White spoke of the serious-
ness of problems which face a
growing child in the world about
him. She stated that an interest
in current events is encouraged by
having the children report on news
events in the manner of a radio
reporter. Various arithmetic games
and the counting of bank and milk
money give the children a greater
facility in addition and subtraction.
The fifth and sixth grades must
help prepare the pupil for the more
mature program of junior high
school.
Delicious refreshments were
served by the following committee:
Mrs. Robert Reynolds, Mrs. Harry
Wood, Mrs. Arthur Watkins, Mrs.
Charles Siders, Mrs. James Same,
Mrs. Robert Gray and Mrs. Joseph
Dunn. The pourers were Mrs. Ron-
ald Davis and Mrs. Arthur Schmidt.
Fourth Grade Tea
The fourth grade tea was held on
Thursday afternoon, October 29,
at the home of Mrs. Malcolm
Dodge, 5 Seneca road, for Mrs.
Margaret Donovan and Miss Mar-
tha V. Cunningham.
Mrs. Donovan gave the mothers
a word picture of a typical day’s
activities of the fourth grader.
Assorted sandwiches and cakes
were served by the following com-
mittee: Mrs. George Farrar, Mrs.
Bruce Young, Mrs. Joseph Masi,
Mrs. Cosmo DiSilva, Mrs Merton
Towle, Mrs. Paul Lamson, Mrs.
John Stevens and Mrs. Clifford
Hummel. Mrs. Herman Meissner
and Mrs. Benjamin Wild were the
pourers.
WASHINGTON SCHOOL ASSEMBLY
The pupils in Mr. Roland Nault’s
fifth grade class presented their as-
sembly to the school on October 28.
Two short plays, based on the ac-
tivities of the class in reading,
language, safety, and science, were
written and acted by the youngsters
themselves.
In the first sketch, “The Story
of Ali Cogia”, the setting was a
desert land in the Near East. Pupils
participating in this playlet were:
Jim Bogue, Linda Parsons, George
Neville, Jim Cann, John Swift,
Steven Morrison, Guild Nichols,
Jerry Ducharme, Richard Keene,
Richard deRevere, Janet Cussen,
Janet Keppler, and Bonny Low.
Hallowe’en was the appropriate
theme of the second play, written
by Janet Keppler, George Neville,
and Jim Bogue. Actors included
the following: Janet Cussen, Jim
Bogue, Bonny Low, Gloria Rotondi,
Jerry Ducharme, Janet Keppler,
Eric Wittet, Buckie Nichols, Steven
Morrison, John Swift, Jim Cann,
George Neville, Richard Keene,
Guild Nichols, and Richard de-
Revere.
Adding much to the enjoyment
of the assembly program were the
songs and jingles written by mem-
bers of the class. The unexpected
appearance of a horse made up by
Guild Nichols and Jerry Ducharme
aroused much humor, as did the
witches costume worn by Steven
Mori son.
At the conclusion of the program.
Principal Leonor Rich talked to
the children about the proper ob-
servance of Hallowe’en.

Commenting on juvenile delin-
quency in a recent issue of the Bos-
ton Herald Mail Bag, M. G. Mac-
Leod of Everett believes that one
reason young women are killing
girls and sixteen year old boys are
lighting to the death with knives
is because we have forgotten that
law is not concerned with kindness,
charity or even justice. Law he
says is intended to protect all so-
ciety, not to protect the criminal.
We recall former Town Counsel
Addison Pike winning for the town
the case against the ice cream
vender who argued that his State
license gave him the right to sell
his wares regardless of town by-
law. Mr. Pike argued that his
license was for the protection of
the public, not to enable him to
carry on his business as he pleased
in contravention to local statute,
and the Court upheld Mr. Pike.
When the law, designed to protect
the community, commences to do
just that, a lot of those new to
crime will stop their activities be-
fore they begin. They won’t like
the prospect of what is in store
for them from a law that wasn’t
made with their protection in mind.
REFERENDUM ONLY WAY
Editor of the Star:
With our present form of Limit-
ed Town Meeting, many of us never
have a chance to vote Yes or No on
town expenditures. Town Meeting
members do not represent us. They
vote as they wish not as we wish.
The most glaring example of this
was in 1952. A straw vote was
taken in Precinct 3. A Ninety Per-
cent coverage of residents was ob-
tained. To the question, “Are you
content to see the tracks raised?”
The Vote was 3 to 1 — No. The
No cards included the name of our
present Commissioner!
A short time after the results of
this straw vote were made known,
the Town Meeting members from
Precinct 3 were required officially
to vote on the same subject. Their
official vote was Yes. Not one ex-
ception that I can remember. This
made it look as though Precinct 3
was One Hundred Percent back of
the plan to raise the tracks!
Those of us who cannot vote in
our own right — or even by proxy
— have only one way to show dis-
pleasure with a course of action
adopted by our Town officials;
namely, we must use the Referen-
dum.
At the time this is written, it
seems likely that Friday, Novem-
ber 20, 1953, will be the date for a
Referendum on the Grade Crossing
appropriation of $190,000 from
Town funds. At the same time as
the above sum was voted, the Se-
lectmen were officially instructed to
go ahead with a plan to raise the
tracks and also build a By-Pass
through the Skillings Estate. Cost
to State is to be approximately 0
million. Cost to Winchester is lim-
ited to $190,000 for property dam-
ages in Center. Actuul cost is
known to be nearly twice that, but
we hope the State will absorb the
difference. The wording of the
Article is open to doubt.
Nt> estimate was mentioned as to
incidental costs to Winchester for
getting disrupted streets and ser-
vices back into order after con-
tractors have finished.
Grades at several streets are to
be changed from an elevation of 25
feet or more to a depressed area of
equal amount (Bacon street and
Swanton street?) You can picture
the upset to abutters at such points.
The State is not concerned with
many of these purely local prob-
lems; but the costs must be paid by
individuals or Town. Nothing will
pay for inconvenience over many
months.
Also, the State is not concerned
at possible tragic results to certain
business men and women who may
be forced out of business because
the Center is to be torn up over a
two-year period. Did you know
thnt there are over 80 commercial
ventures close to the Center? It
has been estimated that in some of
these cases, volume of trade will
fall off 30-40 percent. The Center
will be dusty, noisy and filled with
temporary ways for pedestrians
and vehicles. Parking will be re-
stricted, even unavailable for near-
ly two years. Remember, four
heavy cement piers must be “cast”
at the center and heavy girders
swung into place to form the three-
arch bridge for the double tracks
of the B. & M.
At another point, pile drivers
will shake that area lying over the
old peat bog. Tons of material
must be removed and other tons
brought in. The steady rumble of
j the contractors huge trucks, bull-
dozers, cranes, compressors, etc.,
will keep the Center in an uproar
a true no-man’s land!
•Shoppers will go elsewhere. Why
'not? A dozen small businesses
j will go bankrupt in a two-year
period. These men and women will
I had no redress, with their limited
! means. The “Big Fellows” pos-
sibly can hire legal help.
After the job is finished, here
are some of the points that may
effect you and me:
( 1 ) The noise and dust of fast
express trains will be more in
, evidence than now.
(2) We will find two walls with
the space between filled with gravel
upon which the double tracks of
the B. & M. will rest, high in air.
(3) From a point half-way down
to Wedgemere to just beyond the
Woburn Branch, the; wall will be as
high as the eves of the present
Traffic Tower.
(4) At the center, a large traffic
circle will shimmer in the summer
heat except where the dark shadow
of the three-span bridge passes
over head from North to South.
(5) Arc these girders to be made
more conspicuous by a veneer of
seam-faced stone? The doubtful
improvement does not justify the
expense. •
(6) Ramps are provided for
young people wishing to reach the
new train platforms. These ramps
are long and steep and exposed to
all winter conditions. They are
long enough to leave you breathless
if you hurry from the warm station
at ground level to catch your train
| some 20 feet or more higher.
I (7) Upon your return from Bos-
! ton on a night of freezing drizzle,
those long slopes will give you a
“thrill.” There is no doubt of that.
(8) During the construction
period, the temporary tracks will
probably eliminate the parking
areas near the station and along
Common street to its Northen end.
(9) The other part of Common
street, serving the stores in the
Waterfield Block, will be dead-end,
while the underpass is being built.
(10) It is hard to see how the
two rows of trees along the east
side of the Common can be saved?
Another gaunt parking lot may be
planned for this area when tem-
; porary tracks are removed in 1956?
(11) Over by the Town Hall the
; new By-Pass starts at a traffic cir-
cle (3 times larger than existing
lone) at the intersection of Wash-
j ington street and Mt. Vernon street.
| Beautiful Skillings Estate will be
! flattened and century old trees sent
I to the dump. Land not actually
| used by new highway (4 lane?)
may be black-topped and offers
parking area to two nearby church-
I es.
( 1 2 > The dream of a former
: Planning Board that the Skillings
Estate was cheap at $30,000 is now
I thrown into the discard. The other
night this exceptional site for a
, public building was handed over to
•the contractors for the value of its
gravel content!
* If we think the official plan is
stupid and extravagant, it is ourj
I duty to vote it down at the Refer-
endum. Do not let it go through
by default. Take the time to vote. !

"WHEN WILL IT STOP!
Editor of the Star:
The property owners of Swanton
and Spruce streets, attended a
meeting Friday evening at the re-
quest of the Board of Selectmen.
We would appreciate space in your
column to give our views as to the
: proceedings.
All members of the Board of Se-
lectmen were present with their
secretary, and Harrison Lyman
who took notes, and a member of
the engineering staff of the Wor-
cester Co., Mr. Barker.
Mr. Greer opened the meeting,
stating that the Board was calling
this conference to explain the plans]
that had already been voted on at
the Special Town Meeting; he j
stated that the Board and the en- 1
gineer would like to hear any plans
that might be more acceptable to
relieve the affected abuttors.
He continually referred to the
project as though it were about to
start, giving scant attention to ob-
jections that the matter was still |
to be decided by a referendum. To
confuse the situation still further I
and confirm the statements, al- '
ready made that the town meeting j
voted a “final plan” that was not
even understood by the proponents, j
it was said that it is thought now •
that Spruce street (proposed to be |
closed ut the intersection of Swan-
ton street) would be twelve feet:
above Swanton and under any con- !
dition could not be left open. On j
this one point we now have had
three different figures as to the i
height of the wall in as many meet- 1
ings: eight feet at the Public Hear-
ing, ten feet ut the Town Meeting,
and now twelve feet. When will it
stop ?
It was pointed out (again assum-
ing that the project was going
through), that the Board and the
Department of Public Works would
spare no expense if by adding a
few thousand dollars to the cost of
th eproject it would satisfy these
abuttors. Several of the property
owners stated their position to
, leave the tracks where they are,
that additional damages was not
the project it would satisfy these
were opposed to the plan as it
stands because it affects them, their
neighbors and the whole town.
After considerable prompting by
the Chnirman requesting sugges-
tions as to how the abuttors would
relieve the situation IF the project
was accepted the people grasped
the spirit of the affair. In the
language of the last war — Snafu.
(Situation Normal, All Fouled Up,)
and the suggestions came thick and
fast, always prefaced by a desire
to leave the tracks where they are.
Some of the suggestions included.
1. Taking all the houses in that
area of Swanton street,
2. (’losing Swanton street at the
Bridge (no thought of the affect of
this on the two largest industries
in the town, Bcggs & Cobb and the
International Cooperage,
3. Moving the houses thirty or
forty feet back,
4. Re-routing traffic through the
side streets to the Shore road nnd
the Centre area and back up the
opposite side of the tracks 4o Swan-
ton street,
5. Building stairs from the low-
ered Swanton street to the houses’
level in this instance it was
stated, in some places there would
be as many as thirty eight steps.
To chance for baby carriages,
G. Entering the property from
the rear which would mean turning
all the houses around — and on and
on until the most serious question
of all brought gasps to everyone:
What will happen to these houses
and occupants in case of fire or
serious accident? What provision
has been made for safety protec-
tion on a 15 foot wide service road?
It was apparent that neither the
Selectmen nor the engineer had
figured on getting fire apparatus
into these dead-end service drive-
ways or to dead end Spruce street
area. That serious thought brought
the residents back from engineer-
, ing dreams to the practical fact
that, they did not want the tracks
raised, no matter what scheme was
involved. The meeting ended with-
out a vote being taken but it was
easy to sense that the owner-resi-
dents and their representatives
would have carried the day unani-
mously.
Sincerely yours,
For the residents and owners of
the Swanton and Spruce street
area,

ROUTINE OF THE
U. S. MARINE CORPS RECRUIT
Editor of the Star:
Having received so many calls
asking “What becomes of my boy
after he has enlisted in the Ma-
rines?” I turned to PIO Sgt. Jack
(’hi Ids, Room 734, Post Office
Square, Boston, for verification of
my understanding of a man’s en-
trance into the Marine Corps. Here
goes :
After being sworn into the Ma-
rines the man leaves for Parris Is-
land, S. (’. (He may have enlisted
for 3, 4 or 6 years). The first af-
ternoon, about 60 of you will be
gathered together and told that
from now on your group will be
known us a platoon. You’ll train
together, eat, sleep and work to-
gether for the next few weeks.
During this period you will be
called “Boots” training for specific
jobs with the Corps. After that
you’ll be Murines and on your sep-
arate ways. But going back to the
beginning, after arrival at Parris
Island you will be fitted with uni-
form, clothing, draw a rifle, cart-
ridge belt, bayonet and various ar-
ticles known as 782 equipment. The
second day is filled with physical
examinations, etc. The platoon to
which you are assigned will be
commanded by a non-commissioned
officer, who is your instructor. Pay
strict attention to what he tells
you. He will teach you bayonet
training, chemical warfare, com-
bat principles and exercises, drill,
field fortifications, field sanitation,
first aid, interior guard duty, mili-
tary courtesy, parades and cere-
monies, personal hygiene, physical
training, scouting and patrolling,
rifle training, pistol training, and
grenade and B. A. R. training.
Catholic, Protestant and Hebrew
services are held weekly on the Is-
land. There are chaplains on the
post who will give you such reli-
gious advice as you may desire. If
you should have any complaint to
make or desire any information, do
not hesitate to go to your first
sergeant, who is the representative
of the commanding officer.
There seems to be a mistaken
idea abroad that the Marine Corps
will take anybody. Let me hasten
to correct this and give you the
moral qualifications :
“Applicants whose record or in-
terview indicate conviction by a ci-
vil court, or an adverse record of
adjudication by a juvenile court for
any offense within the jurisdiction
of the respective court, or where
other evidence indicates commis-
sion of an act that would render
the applicant liable to prosecution
in such a court, will be rejected.
Waivers may be requested for the
following cases:
Applicants with juvenile rec-
ords, having been on probation
(or delivered to training schools)
but who have been off such proba-
tion for a period of six months
before making application for
enlistment. Any applicant who
has served on probation will re-
quire waiver clearance from
II QS, Marine Corps, before being
accepted for enlistment. All such
cases will be interviewed by the
recruiting officer or his assistant
before waiver is requested.”
For the first time a Marine re-
cruiting representative is being as-
signed to Winchester. He is S Sgt
John O’Connell. If you see me
around with the Marines 1 am not
about to leave for Parris Island. I
am just introducing him around. I
hope you will stop him and say
“hello.” We would like him to feel
as much at home here as do our Air
| Force and Army sergeants.
A hearty welcome to the U. S.
Marine Corps.
Cordially yours,
Mrs. K. B. Toye
Chairman, Military
Manpower Committee
VOTE YOUR OWN OPINION
Editor of the Star:
I am absolutely opposed to the
basic plan of having the tracks
raised and the Boston and Maine
trains roaring through the town on
a high embankment which would
start from below Wedgemere and
reach to Cross street. Before this
plan is considered any further I
would suggest that the former
plans be reviewed afid perhaps
modified to suit new traffic prob-
lems and the best of these, that do
not contemplate raising the tracks
be fairly presented against this
present plan. We have considered
this matter so long now, that a lit-
tle more time to reach a satisfac-
tory solution will be well spent and
I believe that the State has an-
other project ahead of the Win-
chester problem. Some overhead
traffic plan may be found that will
not disfigure the town and create
such a terrible mess for two years
or more. Every voter in town who
wishes to see presented the best of
the previous plans which do not
raise the tracks, properly and fair-
ly presented, so that it can be com-
pared and studied against the
present plan, should make it his oi-
lier special duty to register a vote j
against the present plan at tin* I
coming referendum. I think Mrs. I
Woodside suggested something like
this in her speech at the last town
meeting.
And many people in town, do
not know that Mr. Elmer Fletcher,!
who opposes the present plan was
once town engineer of Winchester
and his opinion should be given j
great weight.
In addition to the mess, caused
by the temporary tracks and the
mud in Black Ball Pond, the pro-
posed plan causes serious compli-
cations at the Wedgemere station
and at Swanton street. Further,
the proposed by-pass, ruins the
beautiful Skillings lot which might
in time be used for a new public'
building for Winchester, and also
concentrates the ever increasing
traffic on Washington street to
route 128, and the heavy Woburn
traffic, all at the Town Hall, Bap-
tist Church and Wadleigh School
and in addition much of the traffic
from Border road and Highland j
avenue which comes up and down
Mt. Vernon street. Then tin* by-
pass crosses the Mystic Valley
Parkway at the Library and High
School causing another problem
and 1 believe some of the land has
to be taken from the Library and
High School to widen Washington
street.
For the above reasons I hope
every voter in town will study this
situation carefully and then vote,
so that what is done will be an ex-
pression of the will of the people
of Winchester as a whole. It has
been suggested that the last refer-
endum was not representative be-
cause the opposition to the plan
was not well organized and the
proponents made every effort pos-
sible to get the voters to vote their
way, and this time I hope everyone
will think for themselves and vote.
Remember if you voted for it be-
fore you can always change your
mind after due consideration.

THEY LIKE WINCHESTER!
Editor of the Star:
“How do you like your new home
— and how do you like living in
Winchester?” I asked a friend who
moved to Winchester 3 or 4 years
ago.
“I love it,” was the quick reply,
“and my husband loves it more
than I. You see, he has heart trou-
ble and you can’t imagine what a
blessing it is to him to drive to the
station and get on the train with-
out climbing a single step.”
“It will be quite a change when
we get the elevated railroad 19 or
20 it. high in the air — with long
ramps or steps to climb to the
platform. In Lynn, with a platform
of the same height, it is 32 steps
up to the platform, where there
are 2 or 3 boards on each side of a
horizontal stick which they call a
canopy, and not even a post to hide
behind or to hold on to in wind or
rain or sleet or snow.”
“What do you mean about an
elevated railroad? All I have ever
heard about is what they call an
‘overpass’ for the cars to go under
without waiting.”
“This much-advertised ‘overpass’
pictured so beautifully with trains
looking as if they were 2 or 3 feet
above ground is an optical illusion,
for in reality the trains will be 19
or 20 feet high and under this
beautiful ‘overpass* there will be a
traffic circle that may rival the one
at llaymarket, or Sullivan Square.
You may have to diet to squeeze
by it from Mt. Vernon to Church
street, for they say even a corner
of McCormack’s Drug Store will
have to be chopped off. And the
‘overpass* will be only a connecting
link in the middle of a two or
three-mile elevated railroad cutting
the town in two, from Cross street
to somewhere between Wedgemere
and Medford. And Wedgemere with
its interesting setting? All 1 could
think of during the very clever
description of it at the recent hear-
ing (with so many unanswered
questions) was ‘Waltz Me Around
Again, Willie.’ It will certainly
take a guide and plenty of time
for your first trip if you want to
catch a train.”
“Oh, dear, what will my poor
husband say when he find out, es-
pecially when his doctor always
says, ‘now, don’t climb stairs,’ and
do you know he tells me several of
his friends have been told the same
tiling by their doctors.
“How many steps did you say
that they have for the overhead in
Lynn ?”
“When I went down there last
spring to investigate I counted 32
steps up and 32 steps down and
was told that the height of the
platform was the same as it would
lie in Winchester. But I must be
going! You see, I am out getting
names for the referendum which
will give a chance to vote to every-
one of the approximately ninety
five hundred voters who had no
chance to vote in Town .Meeting
and will have no chance except
through the referendum!
“Get the facts as well as you can
about the confused, misleading
questions on the ballot nnd decide
whether or not you want to turn
over $190,000 (One hundred and
ninety thousand dollars) of our
clear,* free cash (which we have
been saving for schools) for one
man nnd 'other interests’ to handle
without a written, signed state-
ment of what we are to get for our
money. Think it over!”

ALL VOTERS
SHOULD BE RECORDED
November 4, 1953
Editor of the Star:
In Winchester, this is the time
for every citizen to stand up and
be counted. When the referendum
on the question of the abolition of
the grade crossing is held, all vo-
ters who have any interest in the
future of their town should go to
the polls and be recorded.
It is almost universally agreed
that the present situation in the
center is untenable. It is not only
inconvenient, but it is unsafe. For
many years there lias been an ex-
treme hazard. Only diligent pre-
cautions by town and railroad of-
ficials have held down fatalities.
The entrapment of police, fire and
ambulance equipment in the center
congestion courts disaster. The
condition is so well known that no
additional elaboration is needed.
As the representative of the peo- 1
pie in the General Court, 1 have
always stood ready to cooperate
fully with any plan that was adopt-
ed by the town. In order that there
may be no misunderstanding, how-
ever, I should, at this time, like to
declare myself as unequivocally fa- j
voring the present proposed plan
put forward by the selectmen and
adopted in the recent special town
meeting.
No plan will provide a perfect
solution. We must accept that as a
hypothesis. What plan, then, will
be most desirable? Every official
engineering study has returned the
answer that the only practical way
to abolish the grade crossing is to
raise the tracks. In fact, if time I
is given to a conscientious study of
costs, limitations and features of
alternate plans, one need not be an
engineer to realize that these other
proposals have far greater objec-
tions than the one currently offered
by the selectmen. For my own
part, I am thoroughly convinced
that the town now has before it the
only practical and logical solution
for abolishing the grade crossing.
Moreover, while I do not believe
the town should adopt a poor plan
under any circumstances, I feel
that the possibility of securing this
imperative improvement at a guar-
anteed total cost of $190,000 to the
Town of Winchester is an almost
incredible bargain. The Common-
wealth recognizes the urgent ne-
cessity for the abolition of this
crossing and for that reason is will-
ing to place its funds behind the
project.
After many years of careful
study and collaboration by the
town, state and railroad officials,
the citizens should be highly grati-
fied that a solution to our vexa-
tious center problem has been
agreed upon and is at hand. In my
opinion, the voters of the town will
do well to support this plan, and to
support it in record numbers on
referendum day!!
Yours sincerely,
Harrison Chadwick
Representative
"THEY VOTED IT!
Editor of the Star:
This appears to he the latest of
many slogans circulated about
Town by the promoters of the Ele-
vated Rail l oad referring to a re-
cent Town Meeting.
And who are “They”?
“They” in this case are 143 Pre-
cinct members out of a Total of 229
(probably half of them Town offi-
cials or employees) who Voted for
the Elevated Railroad. This no
doubt, they will promptly annqunce
as an “Overwhelming Vote.” 143
votes out of a possible 229 Town
Meeting Members is a very small
number. 143 Votes Representing
Approximately 9,500 registered
Voters At Large Is A Still Smaller
Number And An Unpardonable
Proportion Of Citizens And Tax-
payers r I*o Vote On A Question Of
Such Tragic Importance Involving
Wasted Millions Of Dollars And
Ruin Of Our Lovely Town.
Only The Referendum Which We
Are Promoting By Our Persistent
Interest And Hard Work Can (live
To Every Voter The Right To Vote
As He Believes — Be It “Yes” Or
“No” In The Privacy Of The Vot-
ing Booth.
We hope that many taxpayers
and devoted citizens will appre-
ciate the privilege and Vote!

A COINCIDENCE
To reverse a shopworn remark,
“No one planned it that way,” yet
the subject of the special town
meeting of November 12, gains
special significance when it is noted
that the theme of American Edu-
cation Week, during which the
meeting is neld, is “good schools
arc your responsibility.” When
Winchester folk meet together on
Thin- J v night to consider and act
on the report of the Building Com-
mitter for Additional Facilities for
the Senior ;.nd Junior High Schools,
they will he accepting a share of
that responsibility.
In the words of the late Lee M.
Thurston, former United States
Commissioner of Education, “The
American people are doing more
than they have ever done before
for the education of our nation’s
children." In 1952, they Guilt 50,-
000 new classrooms to help house
the swelling a*n i ■■•’’merits which rose |
t»* 2K,(iC0,i'0ti pupi's. Nevertheless,
shortages MMiia’n, and it is estim-
ated that another 400,000 class-
t'OQins will lie needed by 1960.
The figures of present enrollment
in the Winchester schools, publish-
ed earlier this fall, leave no doubt
that the need for action to increase
school facilities in the junior and
senior high schools must he met
now. It is to he hoped that the
town meeting will recognize that
need and take appropriate action.

Tin* Fortnightly through its Art
Committee is sponsoring Art Ex- 1
Dibits in three local store windows |
this week to observe American Art I
week.
Being shown in Peck and Peck’s
window on Main street is a beau-
tiful booked rug “Inspiration” done
by Mrs. Lester Leathers along with
several lovely old re-decorated box - 1
es by Anna L. Burgoyne and Paul-
line Hudson; also a delightful hand
painted tray by Anna L. Burgoyne. j
In Filene’s window on Thompson
street may he seen oil paintings by
three Winchester artists. “Whis- j
key Bayou” by G. Russell Mann, j
“Chrysanthemums” b y Marion ;
Ladd Symmes and a Roekport
scene by Elizabeth M. Lobingier.
The last an award received by Mrs.
Lester Leathers when Art Chair-
man two years ago.
At the Winchester News on
Thompson street, a watereolor
“Winchester Victorian” by another
local artist, Ardyce Cairncrops and
one by A. Bruno are displayed. The
Bruno watereolor was won by Mrs.
Frederick Colo, last year’s chair-
man.
Mrs. Marshall Symmes, this
year’s Chairman was assisted by
Mrs. Lester Leathers in making
these arrangements.
Literature Committee
Members of the Literature Com-
mittee and guests met at 2:00 p. m.
November 2, in the Edgar C. Rich
room of the Public Library and en-
joyed hearing two speakers.
Miss Caroline V. Everett pre-
sented an excellent paper on the
life of Dorothy Canfield Fisher
from the time of her birth in Kan-
sas in 1879 to the present day.
After Mrft. Fisher’s marriage, she
and her husband made their home
on a Vermont farm where they
have lived ever since, except for
four years spent in France when
they volunteered their services dur-
ing the first World War. It was
during this period that Mrs. Fisher
developed her deep understanding
of the French people, especially the
children.
Mrs. Fisher’s books and articles
always contrast the true with the
artificial, accent character and not
characters. Always interested in
young people, her industrious and
constant efforts stressed to them '
the value of New England tradi- 1
tion. The University of Vermont
has become the final resting place i
of her manuscripts which are called
“The Dorothy Canfield Collection”.
Miss Gertrude M. Hall gave a de-
lightful review of two books, j
“Family Album”, by Antonia Ridge
and “Lovely is the Lea”, by Robert
(Jibbing. Both are written in the
the first person, the former is of a
search for members of a family by
means of an album, and the second
of a trip by boat down the Seine
river.
Regular Meeting
Tin* regular meeting of the Fort-
nightly will lie held Monday, No-
vember 9th, in the First Baptist
Church at 2:00 p. m. with Mrs. Sid-

ART LECTURE TO FULL HOUSE
In his talk to the Winchester Art
Association, Mr. Garabed d e r
Hohannesian gave a brief historical
survey of man’s development as a
creative individual who in terms of
his own environment expresses the
thought and spirit of his times. The
important element in painting, he
said, is the organization of space,
"since things are what they are be-
cause of their relationship to each
other”.
Mr. der Hohannesian pointed out
that anyone who will devote a few
minutes each day to it can develop
his appreciation of contemporary
art without necessarily liking or
approving of it. At Rhode Island
School of Design students are
trained to be creative individuals
who can express themselves in any
style without copying, and he be-
lieves that the personal reaction is
the most vital contribution the ar-
tis can make.
The paintings Mr. der Hohanne-
sian brought effectively illustrated
many possibilities of line, texture,
color and spatial relationships. His
paintings shared with those of
Maud Morgan which are on view
for November the use of an excit-
ing palette, strong individuality,
similar abstract design and impres-
sive variety of composition. Mrs.
Morgan’s titles suggest biomorphic
subject matter which was handled
with force and simplicity in con-
trast to Mr. der Hohannesian’s
more objective and more highly or-
ganized compositions.
The wall cases in the gallery
were decorated by Mrs. H. W.
Nickerson with examples of her fine
ceramics. Hostesses for the eve-
ning were Miss Dorothy Nash and
Miss Sylvia Parker.
The Thomas R. Powells of 4
Rangeley Ridge, who have moved
to Hampton, Conn., were given a
farewell party last Saturday by a
group of neighbors and friends.
Mrs. John Sexton was hostess for
the tea at her home in Rangeley,
and Mrs. Nelson C. Fontneau gave
the luncheon at her home on Church
street.

God's love for man as His spiritual

Science servlets Sunday.
The Lesson-Sermon entitled "Adam and
Fallen Man" includes the fallowing pas-
sages from tiie Bible:
"So God created man in His own image,
in the image of God created lie him : male
and female created he tin in. And God saw
everything that lie had made, and. behold,
it was very good” (Genesis 1:27,31).
This explanatory passage will he read
from "Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
"Entirely separate from the belief nnd
dream of material living. Is the Life divine,
revealing spiritual understanding nnd the
consciousness of man’s dominion over the
whole earth" (14:25).
Tin* Golden Text is from Romans:
"As by the olTense of one judgment came
upon nil nu n to condemnation ; even so by
the righteousness of one the free gift came
upon all men unto justification of life"
(5:18).

AFRICAN ESPARTO,
ASIAN ZOYSIA —
CINDERELLAS OF THE
GRASS FAMILY
Two wild grasses from opposite
sides of the world each offer a story
| of man’s ingenuity in finding boun-
ty in improbable places.
‘ One plant, rapped nnd dry, sup-
ports a thrivinp business on the
frinpe of the North African desert,
the National Geographic Society
says. The other, whose wiry preen
sprips were first found in the wilds
of northeastern Asia, today carpets
the White House lawn in Washinp-
ton.
The first is named _ esparto, or
Stipa tenacissima in botanical
terms. The second is called “Meyer
zovsia.”
Paper, Rope And Power
Esparto — also known as Span-
ish prass, alfa, and halfa — flour-
ishes bravely in rocky, sun-parched
soil where almost nothinp else will
prow. Rapped clusters of reedlike
stalks, three to four feet hiph, clinp
to stony foothills and arid plateaus
from southern Spain across Moroc-
co, Algeria, and Tunisia.
Its leaves, tender when younp,
soon prow too tough for cattle to
chew. Yet this harsh pray prass
ranks as one of the world’s most
valuable uncultivated crops.
Fine printing papers are made
from esparto in England and
France — glossy coated sheets for
illustrated magazines, crackling
parchments for college diplomas.
The Spanish navy makes rope of
esparto, hawsers so light they will
float. Baskets, hats, carpets and
tough desert sandals have been
women from esparto fiber for 2,0(K)
years.
Today its collection is a tightly
controlled, highly organized in-
dustry, involving nomadic tribes of
prass merchants and fleets of plod
ding camels. Picked by hand and
brought to remote weighing sta-
tions on camelback, esparto bales
travel from hinterland to coast in
huge 20-ton trailer trucks that fol-
low dusty, barely marked tracks.
Eventually thousands of tons of the
dried grass pile high on wharves
for shipment to paper mills ns far
away as Scotland.
Korean Discovery
Meyer zoysia is an even more
recent Cinderella of the grass fam-
ily. It was discovered in Korea 40
years ago by a United States De-
partment of Agriculture plant ex-
plorer, Frank N. Meyer, who died
in the Orient after sending home
many valuable new plants. No one
then realized its potentiality.
. Much more recently one parti-
cular strain of the grasses Meyer
collected was found to be an amaz-
ingly tough and adaptable grass
for American lawns and golf ;
courses. Tested and developed
further by plant scientists at the
government’s experimental farms
at Bcltsville, Maryland, the grass
which hears Meyer’s name now is
being planted by homeowners in all
parts of the country.
Meyer zoysia’s asset, s include an
ability to outgrow erabgrass. It
thrives in poor soil, resisting dis-
eases and insects that ruin ordinary
lawns. Golf greenskeepers call it
virtually divot-proof, for it quickly
spreads and fills in any chunks tak-
en from its thick, springy turf.
Not that White House gardeners
expect many divots in their acres
of manicured lawn — but Meyer
zoysia now forms a carpet of preen
beauty around the home of the na-
tion’s golf-playing President.

AUSTRALIAN SCIENTISTS
TO ESTABLISH
FIRST WEATHER STATION
ON ANTARCTICA
Ten Australian scientists and
technicians will sail from Mel-
bourne in January to set up Aus-
tralia’s first scientific station on
the mainland of Antarctica.
The expedition is expected to
ljn.se on the coast at a point south-
west of Western Australia, reports
the National Geographic Society.
The advance party will land sup-
plies, erect buildings, and make a
limited land survey during the first
year.
Detailed weather studies will be-
pin early in 1955, as will research
in geology, biology, cosmic rays
and geophysics. Each expedition
member will do a 12-month tour of
duty. The frigid outpost will be
maintained through 1958.
Antarctic “Weather Eye**
The Australian Government be-
gan its long-range plan to explore
and develop the neighboring Ant-
arctic area six years ago, when
weather stations were established
at Heard and Macquarie Islunds.
On these lonely windswept land
spots meteorologists conduct at 24-
hour-a-day study of an eight-mile-
high column of air to classify Ant-
arctic weather sweeping up into
the temperate zones.
Antarctica is known to contain
huge deposits of coal and other
valuable minerals — possibly ura-
nium. Its seas hold tremendous
food resources in whales, fish, seals,
i birds and plankton, to which the
I world might eventually be obliged
to turn. Flights between South
America or South Africa and Aus-
tralia may some day be routed over
I the Antarctic.
Australia’s Antarctic territory
| lies between longitudes 45 degrees
east and 160 degrees east. The
I area embraces 2,472,000 square
| miles and is almost as large as
j Australia itself. At its nearest
| point, Antarctica is only 1,500
miles south of Australia.
Danish Ship Chartered
Most of the men in the advance
party have already served on
Heard or Macquarie Islunds. They
will sail to Antarctica in the 1500-
ton Danish motor vessel, Kistn
Dan. It has a speed of 12 knots
when fully loaded, a range of 14,-
500 miles, and is one of the world’s
most modern ice ships.
The Kista Dan is powered by a
directly reversible six - cylinder
diesel engine, with propeller and
rudder protected against ice. It
will take soundings in uncharted
coastal waters.
Strapped to the ship’s decks will
he two light aircraft. Mounted on
floats or skis, they will be used for
reconnaissance flights, flown and
serviced by Royal Australian Air
Force personnel.
Expedition members will be
equipped with polar ski boots from
Norway, windproofs of Australian
design, eiderdown jackets from
France, and polar tents made in
Britain. On land they will travel
in “weasels”, tracked snow vehicles
manufactured in the United States
for use in World War II. Dog
sledges will be hauled by huskies
bred and trained at Heard Island.

Coney Island, Brooklyn’s crowd-
ed beach and amusement park, was
once inhabited only by rabbits, says
the National Geographic Society.
Its very name may be a derivation
of “konijn.” Dutch word for rabbit,
by which it was called on early
maps.
In building an igloo, the accepted
Eskimo method is to finish the job
from the inside before a door is
made. The owner of the new home
then must chop his way out.
A shutter at a window of Napo-
leon’s home on St. Helena Island
has two peepholes through which
the exiled Emperor could gaze
unobserved by sentries assigned to
watch his every movement. One
he used while standing, the lower
one while seated, says the National
Geographic Society.

SECOND WINCHESTER MORNING
Mr. Theodore Wood, Jr., of Mass-
achusetts Institute of Technology
presented a program of American
Folksongs at the Music Hall on Oc-
tober 29th for the second Winches-
ter Morning sponsored by the Win-
chester Wellesley Club.
Accompanying himself on the
guitar, Mr. Wood, whose pleusant
baritone voice could resound effec-
tively in a rollicking sea chanty
or modulate tenderly for a plain-
tive lovesong, treated an appre-
ciative audience to a musical saga
of the American pioneers. Relat-
ing his songs to their travels,
he traced their progress from
the Eastern seaboard to the Pacific
coust. Commencing with the Pos-
ton “Come All ’Ye” and some
typical sea chanties, he sang
the ballads of the early settlers
as they moved slowly westward,
fanning out to the mountains of
Kentucky, the farmlands of the
South, and the western prairies.
Still sung by the mountaineers is
the old English ballad “Edward”,
while southern planters recorded
their problems in the “Boll Weevil
Song”. Sturdy frontiersmen in
covered wagons left the Oregon
Trail as their musical legacy, and
the cowboys wakened lazy com-
rades with the “Gittin’ Up Holler”,
or lulled their cattle with the
soothing strains of the “Colorado
Trail”. As an example of one of
the many railroad songs, Mr. Wood
sang “John Henry”, which lauds
the exploits of America’s greatest
folksong hero.
For the second half of his pro-
gram Mr. Wood sang a “Garland of
Love Songs”, which included the
familiar “Foggy Foggy Dew” and
“Frankie and Johnnie”, as well as
others less well known, such as the
“Riddle Song”, “Lament for a Lost
Child” and “Wish I Was Single
Again”. He concluded with the
haunting ballad from south of the
border, “Mi Amor Corazon”. Mr.
Wood’s program, which was the
first of its kind to be presented at
the Mornings was most enthusias-
tically received.
The final program of the Win-
chester Mornings will be on Thurs-
day, November 12th, when Mr.
John Ely Burchard, Dean of Hu-
manities and Social Studies at
Massachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology will speak on Liberal Edu-
cation. Mr. Burchard received a
Master’s Degree in civil engineer-
ing and architecture from M. I. T.
and has a wide background of ex-
perience in scientific research. Dur-
ing World War II he led missions
to the Caribbean, the Pacific Ocean
area and Germany for the Office of
Scientific Research and Develop-
ment. Author of numerous books
and pupers, he is widely known as
a brilliant speaker. « 9

CIVIL DEFENSE
'i
The Civil Defense radio-equipped
cars and their operators gave very
valuable assistance this past Hal-
lowe’en. The equipment worked to
perfection, due to the assistance
of Mr. Robert B. Richmond, the
Civil Defense communications di-
rector. The operators deserve a
great deal of praise for their part
in operating the cars and cooperat-
ing with the police department.
Mr. W. F. Beyers, Mr. W. J. Bar-
tell, Mr. W. Burton, all of Win-
chester, and Mr. J. Washburn of
North Reading, were in these cars
covering the town. Mr. Kendall
Spencer operated the intercom
helping to coordinate the police
desk with the radio control room,
remaining on duty until all was
quiet.
The radio-operated cars were
responsible for apprehending sev-
eral out-of-town invaders and pro-
viding them with escort service to
the town’s border. At some time
during the evening Lieutenant
Dcrro requested additional help
from the auxiliary police, who re-
sponded in full force. They were
instrumental in breaking up groups
of young people and their help
proved invaluable as it has in the
past. The police department is
deeply grateful, as the residents
should be, for a job well done. A
great deal of credit goes to Cap-
tain Robert A. Johnstone and his
men. Because of their efforts van-
dalism in Winchester was at a
minimum. It once more proves that
we cannot afford to be without
them.
GUESTS AT MAINE FARM
FIRST BAPTIST YOUTH
The Junior High and Senior High
Youth Fellowship will meet to-
gether at 0:30 on Sunday evening.
They will have as a guest speaker
Mr. Larry French, president of the
Massachusetts Baptist Youth Fel-
lowship. He will speak of the
Fourth Baptist Youth World Con-
ference which was held in Rio de
Janeiro in June.
Miss Cynthia Cummings will
lead in the worship service. There
will be special music by a girls’
chorus consisting of Irene Mullen,
Norma Jean Hart, Frances Bos-
selmann, Jean Dawson, and Caro-
lyn Parks. Refreshments and fel-
lowship following the meeting.
On Tuesday eight members of
the “Christmas Greens Day Com-
mittee” of the Winchester Home
and Garden Club spent a most de-
lightful day as guests of Mrs. Nor-
man Mitchell at her lovely old East
Waterboro, Maine, farm, the build-
ings of which date back to the early
j seventeen hundreds and are very
appropriately and tastefully fur-
nished with antiques and family
heirlooms.
After a delicious luncheon Mrs.
Mitchell helped committee mem-
bers gather material in the sur-
rounding woods, which will be used
at the annual Christmas Gvoons*
Day held at the Baptist Church on 1
Wednesday, December 9th.
All Garden Club members are in-
vited to work on this Christmas ;
sale at the home of Mrs. Marshall i
Pihl, 30 Mystic Valley Parkway,
every Tuesday during November. |
Co-chairmen for this annual sale
are Mrs. J. Stewart Chaffe, Mrs. j
Wilfred McKenzie, and Mrs. Mar-
shall Pihl.
Richard Fernandez of Winches-
ter, has been selected for the Uni-
versity of New Hampshire Men’s
Glee Club, which is under the direc-
tion of Robert L. Garret. son of the
Department of Music.
MR. MURPHY ELECTED
Mr. Francis R. Murphy of G7
Church street has been elected to
membership in Sigma Delta Chi,
professional journalistic fraternity,
by the New England chapter.
Mr. Murphy, who was educated
in Winchester schools, is a veteran

Winchester Council No. 210.
Knights of Columbus, will attend
a memorial mass at the Immacu-
late Conception Church on tlu* holi-
day morning at 8:00 a. m. This an-
nual service is a tribute to tlu*
Council’s deceased members and a
pledge that these latter have not
been forgotten by tlu* Council. Led
by Grand Knight John Nowell and
his officers, the members of Win-
chester Council will gather outside
the church at 7:45 a. m. and pro-
ceed inside in a body. All brothers
of tlu* council are urged to make
every effort to attend. Rev. Stephen
Burke, Council chaplain, has high
hopes that the church will be filled
to overflowing and points out that
some day we, too, will he overjoyed
to have the members gathered to-
gether to pray in remembrance of
us. The date again: Wednesday,
November 11th, at 8:00 a. m.
The Council has appointed
through Grand Knight Nowell a
committee to sponsor a Christmas
party for the children of members
and their friends as has been the
Council’s annual custom. It is hop-
ed to make this another memor-
able party as last year’s was.
Membership in the Knights of
Columbus is soaring, according to
latest reports, with an all-time
high reported for Massachusetts
totaling 49,400. This figure was
given lit the recent fall conference
of K of C officials held recently.
Judge John E. Swift, former Su-
preme Knight of the K of C, at the
annual meeting of the Supreme
Council held not too long ago at
St. Paul, Minnesota, called upon
the members at this 71st annual
meeting to fight the “Red Under-
ground” by joining a program that
“must tell the world that commu-
nistic doctrines, spread by a vicious
underground in the name of free-
dom, are to be tagged as the spawn
of God-hating individuals.” Pope
Pius XII and President Dwight D.
Eisenhower sent messages to the
convention.

Patricia Thomas speak on “My So-
cial Service.” Miss Thomas is the

TAKING RAILROADS COURSE
AT B. U.
Charles P. O’Rourke, Jr., of 20
Symmos road is one of 23 railroad
employees currently enrolled in tlu*

Prof. John Waters, director of
Boston University’s Evening Div-
ision, said in referring to the rail-
road program, it is particularly en-
couraging when any segment of in-
dustry takes cognizance of the vast
potential of “progress quotient”
which even u little additional edu-
cation for an individual can yield.

IS THERE ANY ROOM FOR HOPE?
pertain recent world changes rekindle the hopes of man-
kind that its dreams of peace and good will may come true.
We pray that the world’s resources may be rededicated and di-
rected towards material and spiritual progress, rather than to-
wards frenzied defenses against aggression and a mad race for
weapons of mass destruction. W e hope that new international
agreements now being developed may he sound enough to last.
This opportunity before the world again may he wasted,
ill part, as so many others have been. If so, it will mean that
the leaders of the people and the people themselves do not yet
have the faith necessary to shape the working agreements among
nations around Christian principles. It will mean that our
churches are not yet strong enough, that we have not yet los-
tered the Christian spirit among the world's peoples to the level
where it must lx* maintained for a lasting peace.
There is room for hope that we may not fail. So much of
it depends on you as an individual. A certain prayer suggests:
“Thy Kingdom come, oh God, beginning with me.” We pray
that the Church of God, of which you are a representative, can
give to all people and tin* leaders of today and tomorrow spiri-
tual strength and faith in Christian fellowship which represents
the greatest hope of the world.

COUNCIL FOUND
U. N. APPROVAL
How many Winchester residents
go along with the principle of the
United Nations? 25'; ? 60'/< ?
10 '/r ?
According to a survey conducted
during U. N. week by the Winches-
ter United Nations Council through
the cooperation of the High school
and Junior High school, over 80',;
of the replies approved the prin-
ciple and purpose of the United
Nations. These responses were
from parents of students in both
schools and from the High School
students themselves.
Approval of the U. N. was the
largest area of agreement disclosed
hy the poll and the second largest
was approximately 20'; who were
disheartened by the conduct of the
Korean war, whether they approv-
ed the U. N. or not. Only Vfc of
1% of the students and 1V6% of
the parents were totally opposed
to international cooperation of any
kind. 1 2 '/<■ of the students and 0'/
of the parents approved the United
Nations but felt that it bad not
functioned adequately in the Ko-
rean war. 70' i of the students and
07',; of the parents were in accord
with the United Nations principle
and felt that the U. N. had been of
use in the Korean war also. In-
teresting in several ways is the fact
that 87',; of the students favored
the U. N. as compared with 81% of
their parents.
The quality of response to the
Council’s questionnaire was sur-
prising. Many more were returned
than the Council had expected. A
large section of those replying had
generously enlarged on their views,
pro and con, and these opinions will
la* of great value to the Council in
evaluating public feeling about the
United Nations. The Council is
also indebted to Mr. Grindle, prin-
cipal of the High school, and Mr.
Hickman, principal of the Junior
High, and to the room teachers for
their cooperation.
The Winchester U. N. Council is
a group of representatives of exist-
ing organizations in Winchester
which are interested in building an
informed public opinion on inter-
national cooperation. The Council
is particularly concerned with suit-
able observance of United Nations
Day and U. N. Week in Winches-
ter and is not affiliated with any of
the various national organizations
related to the United Nations.
NEW "PINT A YEAR CLUB"
Two residents of Winchester
have been identified with the pro-
gram of the new “Pint a Year
Club” originated at the Hlanchard
Machine Company plant in Cam-
bridge to obtain blood for the Red
Cross. The company, located at 04
State street in Cambridge, manu-
factures surface grinding ma-
chines.
Mr. Henry K. Spencer of 1 Cen-
tral Green, as general manager
and treasurer of the firm, and Mr.
Patrick Doherty of 223 High street,
as supervisor of the magnetic
chuck and coil winding depart-
ments, have both endorsed the pro-
gram and cooperated in furthering
it in every way possible.
The plan has worked so well at
Blanchard’s that it is hoped it will
he adopted ut other plants and
offices throughout the country.
Donations have been received cov-
ering 69 percent of those eligible
to give hy reason of their age.
In discussing the recent explo-
sion that took place on the carrier
Leyte many of the men at Blan-
chard’s feel that perhaps their
blood may have helped save the life
of one or more of those injured in
the tragedy.

COUNTY LEGION TO MEET
The regular November meeting
of Middlesex County Council, The
American Legion, Harold F. Col-
lins of Ashland, commander, will
he held on Sunday, November 15,
at 3 p. m. in Maynard as the guest
• if Frank J. Denims Post No. 235.
The executive committee will meet
at 2:30 p. m.
Legion fo Aid Auxiliary
One of the most valuable contri-
butions which the American Legion
Auxiliary makes to the rehabilita-
tion of the veterans in Bedford
Hospital is their annual Christmas
Gift Shop. This shop is stocked
with all kinds of suitable gifts for
yuletide presents and include things
for men, women and children.
Just before the Christmas holi-
day those veterans who are able
to visit the shop are permitted to
select a gift for every member of
their family, and these gifts are
then properly packed and address-
ed und mailed hy the Auxiliary in
time to he received by Christmas.
Those veterans who are not able
to visit the shop are not overlooked.
Well-stocked carts are wheeled to
their bedside in order that they,
too, may make their selections.
While this project is distinctly
an Auxiliary affair, nevertheless
members of the Legion and others
interested in the veterans can make
their contributions. Harold F. Col-
lins, commander of Middlesex
County Council, urges all posts of
The American Legion within Mid-
dlesex County to assist their Aux-
iliary units in making this year’s
shop a success. Middlesex County
alone is called upon to prepare
about 4700 gifts for Bedford Hos-
pital. It is a large order, hut one
that can he tilled, especially if the
Legion posts of the county get to-
gether and assist their Auxiliary
unit.
The tentative dates for the Bed-
ford Hospital Christmas Shop are
from November 30 through Decem-
ber 4.
Commander Collins points out
that each gift brings cheer and
gladness to at least three persons;
first, to the donor of the gift; then,
to the hospitalized veteran who is
permitted to send the gift to his
loved one, and then, to the recipient
of the gift. These gifts cost so lit-
tle, about one dollar each, and yet
— realize the value in the matter
of cheering and rehabilitation of
the hospitalized veterans.
Prominent Legionnaire
Hospitalized
John II. McCarthy, formerly a
member of the Winchester Board
of Public Health and for many
years a very active member of
Winchester Post No. 97, The Amer-
ican Legion, is a patient at the

South Huntington avenue, Boston,
where he will undergo surgery.
Jack, as he is called, should re-
ceive a deluge of greeting cards
and well-wishing notes.

As their special contribution to
American Education Week, the
Winchester Teachers’ Club has ar-
ranged a series of student exhibits
to be displayed in the windows of
several local stores. The older pu-
pils in Miss Pauline Goodrich’s art
classes at the high school are show-
ing some of their work at Hevey’s
Drug Store, while across the street,
in the windows of the Winchester
Drug, may be found pictures drawn

SENIOR FORUM SPONSORS PLAY
Although the spring vacation of
the high school seems in the very
distant future, Forum members
are already taking advantage of |
every opportunity to earn money
for their annual spring vacation
trip, which this year will be a eon- |
ference.
Indicative of the interest the j
various church organizations take
in the projects of the young peo-
ple is the cooperation of the Parish
Players, who have each year gra-
ciously allowed the Forum to take
over the sale of tickets to the
Thursday night performance of one
of their plays, and use the profits
toward expenses of the spring trip.
This yenr the Forum is sponsoring
the Thursday night performance of
the fall production, “The Impor-
tance of Being Earnest,” by Oscar
VV ilde, to be presented on Novem-
ber 19, 20 and 21.
In charge of the sale of tickets
for the Thursday night, November
19, performance are Betsy Lathrop
and Dotty Pratt, assisted by the
rest of the spring conference com-
mittee: Nancy Donaghey, Richard
Emerson, Brad Johnson, Bill Ross
and Betsy Sargent. During the cof-
fee hour, pouring at the two tables
will be Mrs. Dwight L. Cart, Mrs.
Richard L. Emerson, Mrs. Harold
J. McKinley and Rev. Almeda C.
Vickery. Acting as hosts and host-
esses will be Mr. and Mrs. Allen O.
Eaton, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas M.
Hill, Dr. and Mrs. Ross Cunning-
ham, and Mr. and Mrs. Ralph H.
Swan. Buddy McKinley will take
tickets at the door and Renny John-
ston will keep a watchful eye on
the coats in the hall.
“The Importance of Being Ear-
nest,” one of the most entertaining
of Oscar Wilde’s plays, should have
a big attraction for young and old
and an early reservation is advis-
able, so do not delay in calling Bet-
sy Lathrop, Winchester 6-0126, or
Dotty Pratt, Winchester 6-0479.

HALLOWEEN
GENERALLY QUIET HERE
Police and firefighters character-
ize Winchester’s Hallowe’en as very
quiet, and especially not witnessing
much malicious mischief by com-
parison with many other commu-
nities.
There were individual instances
of serious mischief, such as throw-
ing smoke bombs into houses on
Seneca road and Swan road, and
throwing one of the bombs through
the window of a house on Oneida
road.
Complaints of stealing and
breaking ornamental pumpkins at
a home on Seneca road were made
to the police, and a house on Church
street was sputtered with green
paint, another home on Wildwood
street being daubed with red paint
by way of variation.
Street lights were broken on
New Meadows road, and the cellar
screens were pulled from a house
on Central street. The window of
a house on Swantun street was
broken with a cement missile.
The auxiliary police assisted the
regular force on Hallowe’en and
Auxiliary Captain Herbert T.
Wadsworth picked up two West
Side hoys on Swan road who had
with them a box of the fuel tab-
lets for model airplanes the young-
sters were using for smoke bombs.
The hoys and their fathers were
talked to at headquarters by Lt.
O’Connell, and the police say any
use of these fuel tablets as smoke
bombs will be prosecuted.
The police got a tip that a house
on Grove street was to he raided
by a group of young mischief mak-
ers, hut the appearance uround the
house of police and auxiliary po-
lice forestalled what easily could
have been a serious situation, ac-
cording to the advance plans learn-
ed by the police.
The only arrest in Winchester
Hallowe’en was that of u Medford
man for drunkenness.

At a meeting of the Little League
baseball Directors, Monday night,

Board was the availability of play-
ing area. This was solved for next

ganization for this purpose. It is
estimated that approximately 60
boys, mainly the younger ball play-
ers, will he added to the program.
It is expected that the farm teams
will be issued T-shirts and caps and
all necessary safety equipment.
Organizing o f personnel t o
handle this phase of the program
was discussed and was placed in the
hands of a committee with George
Neville as Chairman. It is expect-
ed that most of the personnel will
he recruited from the fathers of the
boys who will play on the farm
teams plus other interested men
who have not had an opportunity to

INTERESTING FIGURES
The Star learns unofficially that
the remodelling and equipping of
the Junior High School to house
a four-year high school and the
construction of six additional rooms
at the Parkhurst School will cost
the town in the neighborhood of
one million eight hundred thousand
dollars. Since most of this sum
will have to he raised by a bond
issue, the transaction will come
close to reaching the debt limit, be-
yond which the town can not bor-
row without special permission.
Unofficially also it has been es-
timated that the proposed takings
from the Excess and Deficiency Ac-
count will reduce that fund about
as far it will be prudent to go.
Raises in the tax rate for next
year up to five dollars are being
freely predicted, with the school
program alone being responsible
for about three dollars.
SHOPLIFTER SENTENCED
George W. Reay of Boston, 58,

liam Henchey in the District Court

17 at Filene’s Winchester store by
Miss Driscoll of Filene’s security
department and placed under arrest
by Officer James E. Flaherty. He
was booked at Headquarters and
appeared in the Woburn Court the
next day. His case was continued
several times before his conviction
yesterday.
Police say Reay has a long
record, including many arrests for
shoplifting. He appealed the sen-
tence given him at Woburn and was
held for appearance before the
Grand Jury.

OLD MAP ON DISPLAY
Realtor Bill Murray of the firm
of Murray and Gillett has on dis-
play in his office window on Thomp-
son street an interesting copy of
the original plan of the old Boston
and Lowell Railroad when it was
laid out through Winchester in
1836.
The map once owned by Mr. Mur-
ray’s grandfather, Martin Murray,
a veteran of the Civil War, was the
work of Engineer James F. Bald-
win and drawn by Henry C. Waters.
The copy was made in 1893 by H
P. Yothen.
Winchester in 1836 was of course
a part of Woburn and such districts
as Symmes Corner and Black Horse
Village were used to designate
parts of the community. Mystic
Lakes were called on the map Med-
ford Ponds and the old Lowell
Canal route is clearly shown.
Old timers especially will find
the map well worth a trip to the
Murray and Gillett office to see.
BELMONT HERE TOMORROW
Winchester High meets Belmont
tomorrow afternoon on Manchester
Field with the kickoff scheduled for

Belmont has had a poor season
so far as winning football goes,
having hut a single victory to its
credit thus far. The Red and Blue
however has always managed to
give Winchester trouble, no matter
how weak its team may appear at
game time, and Coach Knowlton
isn’t underestimating the visitors.

Loyalty Sunday
Homer Emerson Pendleton,
known to many in Winchester
through his long association with
the Economy Market in the center,
died early Friday morning, Novem-
ber 6, at his home, 109 Cambridge
J street, after a long and painful ill-
ness.
Mr. Pendleton was the son of
Mrs. Susan (Springer) and the
late Joseph Brooks Pendleton. His
father, for many years the dean of
college football officials, was known
and loved by more college and
private school football fans than
any other official in the east.
Mr. Pendleton, known familiarly
as “Homer”, was born November
14, 1911, in New Rochelle, N. Y.
He came with his family to Win-
chester the next year and grew up
in town, attending the Winchester
schools. For a time he worked in
the old Hutchinson’s Market, then
located in the building adjacent to
the White Building on Main street
facing the railroad crossing, and
later he was for 25 years employed
at the Economy Market, remaining
there until ill health forced his re-
tirement in March of 1952.
His friendliness and willingness
to serve won him the liking, not
only of the Economy patrons but of
bis associates at the market and
those who knew him around the
center. This liking grew to a pro-
found respect and admiration on
the part of those who knew the
courageous fight he waged against
the malady with which he was af-
flicted and the uncomplaining
patience with which he endured
thv suffering he was called upon to
bear.
A close follower of sports, Mr.
Pendleton was a great Bruins and
Red Sox rooter, being especially
fond of hockey and a regular at-
tendant at the games in the Garden
as long as his health would permit.
His knowledge of hockey and base-
ball statistics was surprisingly
wide and accurate.
He leaves bis mother, who is
seriously ill at her home, and two

GEOkGE r. BARNSTEAD
George R. Barnstead, for many
years publisher «»f the Stoneham
Independent, died Tuesday, No-
vember 2. His passing removed a
figure long well known in the local
weekly newspaper field.
Born in Watertown in 1873, Mr.
Barnstead went with his family to
Stoneham in ’78, his father at
that time entering the employ of
the Stoneham Independent, then
run by Whittier Brothers, from
whom the late Theodore P. Wilson,
i father of the present editor and
i publisher of the Winchester Star,
1 bought the Star in 1880. Up to
then the Star had been an offshoot
of the Independent with a very lim-
ited circulation in Winchester.
The late Mr. Barnstead, as a
young man, became associated with
his father in the newspaper busi-
1 ness, buying the Stoneham Indc-
i pendent in 1909. He continued to
publish the paper until succeeded
by his son, G. Richard Barnstead,
present publisher of the puper.
Mr. Barnstead was a veteran of
the Spanish- American War, return-
ing from Puerto Rico with the rank
of captain. He served three terms
as a Stoneham selectman, was for
12 years a member of the Stone-
ham hook and ladder company and
was a trustee of Lindenwood Cem-
etery and a director of the Stone-
ham Cooperative Bank.
Mr. Barnstead was a widower.
Besides his sons, he leaves three
grandchildren and a brother, Sum-
ner E. Barnstead.
Funeral services were held last
Friday afternoon at the First Con-
gregational Church in Stoneham.
WINCHESTER CHURCHES
PLAN LOYAITY SUNDAY
CLIMAX TO THIRD UNITED
CHURCH CANVASS
Loyalty Sunday, November 15,
will be marked in Winchester with
special dedicated sermons in all
Protestant Churches, and followed
by individual home visits to all
church members and friends. This
will bring to a successful climax the
town’s 1953 United Church Can-
vass, and will close the third
straight year in which the principal
Protestant Churches have joined
hands in their all-important job of
fund-raising.
The United Canvass co-ordinates
the efforts of all the principal Pro-
testant Churches toward creating
an awareness and an appreciation
of the job the churches are doing to
build a better community. At the
same time it seeks to arouse a feel-
ing of pride and responsibility on

MALLARD KILLED BY BOY
Early Wednesday afternoon the

road man and lifelong resident of
the town, died suddenly Monday
morning, Nov. 9, at his home, 6
Westley street. He was 81 years
old and had been in poor health for
some time.
Mr. Quill was the son of Michael,
and Ellen (Sullivan) Quill. He was
born Jan. 4, 1872, ih Winchester
and grew up in town, being edu-
cated in the Winchester schools.
For more than 25 years until his

bridge; and eight grandchildren.

TIME FOR DECISION
was last November. We voted overwhelmingly for LOWER TAXES and
sensible expenditure of OUR tax money.
Our Mate taxes are now — Wages 2 Z± r A , Annuities lbV.7% Taxable gains
6 r /r , Interest ami Dividends 6' r — Above totals PLl S 20' i General Fund. PLUS
37c old age, PLUS gasoline tax, tobacco tax. etc., PLUS. Can we dare hope for
a reduction?
('.an we afford to let our state officials spend 6-10 million dollars to keep open
60 FEET OF STREET when they could build 30-50 MILES of bighwuys for the
same money?
Highways can be put OYER or UNDER the railroad tracks for less than
two million dollars.
W ith positive savings of millions of dollars should we not insist that the
Department of Public Works work out plans to make this saving?
Regardless of plan, with recession years ahead, IS THIS THE T IME for
this type of project?
The overhead railroad plan is nowhere near complete, even today, but as
proposed so far will cost Winchester nearer 8350,000 than $100,000. CAN W K
AFFORD IT?
WE MUST PROVIDE SCHOOLS. Our immediate school building pro-
gram will cost approximately:
Converting Junior High to Senior High
Converting Senior High to Junior High
Addition to Parkhurst School
$1 .000,000
400,000
225,000
$2,525,000
Ibis program will necessitate spending ubovr It inrlirstrr's present ability
to borrow.
Winchester tax rate 1053
Fair estimate 1054-1055
$42.00
$47.00
WE CAN AFFORD \ UTI LE MORE TIME during whirl, we can work
with the state to SAVE MILLIONS SAN E the Skillings property SAN K
the homes of our citizens on the “plains” and at Rangeley — SA\ E the busi-
nesses of our center merchants PREVENT drastic erosion of real estate

MRS. SOPHIE N. NICHOLS
Mrs. Sophie Neighbour Nichols
died suddenly November 6, at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Will-
hurt E. Kinsley.
Mrs. Nichols had been a resident
of Winchester for the past 25 years
during which time she had been
active in the Church of the Epi-
phany.
Services were held at the Kimball
Chapel on Monday, the Rev. John
W. Ellison, officiating.
Interment will be in Elmira, N. Y.
to 7 p. m.
Warrants have been distributed
and the voters will be asked to en-
dorse or reject the action of the
delegates at the recently-held spe-
cial town meeting, approving the
overhead plan submitted by the
Selectmen and authorizing the Se-
lectmen, or chairman of the Se-
lectmen, to enter into definite
agreements with the Common-
wealth of Massachusetts through
its Department of Public Works,
or with any other parties in inter-
! est, which will provide for the eli-
mination of the crossing in the cen-
ter and for the construction of a
traffic bypass around the center.
The referendum vote will also
cover the appropriation by the spe-
cial town meeting of $190,000, to
be taken from the Excess and De-
ficiency Account to pay the town’s
share of the project, this sum to be
expended for land damages.
The vote of precinct delegates at
the town meeting was 143 in favor
and 23 in opposition. A majority
vote only is necessary on the refe-
rendum.
Most Winchester residents have
an idea of what the overhead rail-
road tracks will look like as they
course through town on their great
wall of earth and faced stone. The
general structure of the plan has
hocn well publicized and more or
j loss accurate pictures of bridges
that will carry the rails through
I the center of the town have been
j shown.
What hasn\ been so well pub-
licized are the temporary tracks, on
which trains will run while the
great wall is being built, and since
these tracks will be in use for about
two years the Star has felt that
their location and ramifications are, i
or should be, of interest.
Consequently your Star reporter
visited the Engineer’s office at the
town hall this week nnd with the
valuable, nay absolutely essential,
assistance of former Mayor Nichol-
as H. Fitzgerald, one of the better
informed tub-thumpers for the
overhead plan, attempted to trace
the progress of the temporary
roadbed through town.
As shown on the scale map of
the overall plan the temporary
tracks switch from the main line at
a point about 2,000 feet below Ba- ‘
eon street and parallel the regular
tracks northward, crossing the
Aberjona on a trestle about 50 feet
westerly (toward the Parkway)
from the present tracks as they
cross the river over the culvert
just below Wedgemere Station.
There will be at this point about
35 feet between the main and tem-
porary tracks.
Continuing, the temporary tracks
pass through the location of the
westerly wall of the present Wedge-
mere station with the inbound, or
most westerly of the temporary ,
tracks about 13 feet from the west-
erly wall of the station as it now
stands. The station will of course ,
have to be relocated to the west-
ward while the temporary tracks
are in use.
The temporary tracks as they
head for Winchester Station are
located inside the granite wall of
the old Ginn Estate ofT Bacon
street, now owned by William C.
Cusack, being about 35 feet inside
the wall at a point about opposite
the former Ginn stable and 18 feet
from the easterly side of the rail-
road wall at the Powers property.
The railroad wall which continues
from the Ginn wall sets in about
20 feet from the higher wall of the
former Ginn property. j

in 1949. In his chapter he has held
the offices of Chaplain, Treasurer,
and presently, Scribe.
In 1952 Sherman had the title of
“Representative DeMolay” con-
ferred upon him, being picked by
the Grand Council of the Order of
DeMolay as being truly represen-
tative of what DeMolay stands for.
Early this fall he was invested
with the “Degree of Chevalier”.
This is an honorary degree con-
ferred “for outstanding and mark-
ed DeMolay activity and labor,” by
the Grand Council.
Sherman was installed as State
Scribe at a public installation of
State Officers in Memorial Hall,
Melrose.
NATIONAL BOOK WEEK
AT THE LIBRARY
The thirty-fifth annual celebrn- !
tion of National Book Week will
take place next week in most of the
nation’s p u h 1 i c libraries and
schools. “Reading is Fun” is the
slogan for the week.
The Children’s Room at tin* Win-
chester Public Library will he gay
with posters and new hooks. New
hooks for children will he on dis-
play during the week and will not
he issued for home use until the
following week. This will give
parents, teachers, children and all
interested people an opportunity to
see a fine? collection of children's
hooks. It is suggested by the
Children’s Librarian, Miss Eliza-
beth Russell, that ideas for Christ-
mas gifts may he found in this
book display.
Highlight of Book Week
Mrs. Ann e Molloy, a former
Winchester resident and author of
children’s hooks will speak at the
Winchester Public Library Friday
afternoon, November 20th at 3:, ‘10
p. m. in the Art Gallery. Mrs.
Molloy is a graduate of Mount
Holyoke College and is now a resi-
dent of Exeter, New Hampshire
where her husband teaches at Phil-
lips Exeter.
It is recalled with interest that
Mrs. Molloy wrote her first book,
“Coast Guard to Greenland” while
a resident of Winchester. She
used the resources of the Public
Library and did some of her actual
writing here. Other popular chil-
dren’s hooks written by Mrs. Mol-
loy include: “Dccky’s Secret”, “A
Bird in Hand”, “Shooting Star
Farm”, “The Pigconeers”, and a
new one just published, “The Mon-
key’s Fist”.
Through the courtesy of Hough-
ton Mifflin Company, Publishers,
ten original illustrations from Mrs.
Molloy’s newest book, “The Mon-
key’s Fist” are on display in the
Children’s Library.
The special program for Friday
afternoon of Book Week at which
time Mrs. Molloy will speak is for
boys and girls of the fourth, fifth,
and sixth grades so it is hoped that
parents and teachers will direct
children of that age group to the
library for this special event next
week.

WINCHESTER, 28; BELMONT, 7
Displaying an overwhelming of-
fensive superiorly and a tight de-
fense, Winchester easily defeated
Belmont High School, 28 to 13, at
Manchester Field in a postponed
game, Monday, November 9th.
With the exception of a startling
80 yard runlmck of a kickoff from
his own 2u yard lint* by Wilkins <>f
Belmont, after fumbling the ball,
Belmont was able to make little
headway against the rugged for-
ward line presented by the Red and
Black team. Incidentally, Wilkin’s
long run was mude against the
Seconds, who got mixed up on their
defensive work and lost sight of the
ball until it was too late to stop
the speedy Belmont carrier.
Rome indication of thu one-sided-
ness of the game may be indicated
by the fact that Winchester made
eleven first downs to Belmon’t 4;
gained 193 yards on the ground to
Belmont’s 51; put the ball in play
from scrimmage 61 times to Bel-
mont’s 39, and put together four
different sustained drives for touch-
downs of 62 yards, 42 yards, 65
yards and 33 yards respectively,
with one 17 yard pass sandwiched
into the 65 yard drive.
Neither team resorted to the air
as often ns one might have expect-
ed from the score. Winchester com-
pleted one for 17 yards and one for
five yards and a touchdown. Bel-
mont completed one pass for 14
yards and missed on two other tries.
Winchester failed to complete four
passes.
Belmont’s first score came as the
direct result of a blocked punt
which was picked up by Bob Butler
and carried to the Winchester six
inch line. On the next play Belmont
scored. The other score came, as
previously stated on a runbuck of
80 yards against the seconds.
Winchester’s offensive play in
the 1st half was dominated by Big
Mike Murphy, who lugged the ball
for 61 yards on 9 plays, besides
running back a kickoff for 23 yards.
Murph was bitting the line with
power. His work in backing up the
line was better than anything he
lias shown before.
The Seconds played all but a few
minutes of the entire second half
and gave a good account of them-
selves. outside of the one slip-up
when Belmont scored on a kick-off.
Ross, at quarterback, bandied the
team well and tossed a short pass
over the line to Nelson for a score
from the five yard line.
Bob Haggerty played a rugged
game at his halfback position, but
was removed from the game with
a nose injury after being stopped
on a bard drive over left guard for
a first down.
Again as in the Reading game,
Joe Bellino’s favorite pitchout-end-
i un-plnv was stopped by lack of
good blocking nnd by evident scout-
ing of the play by the Relnmnt
scouts. In the Belmont stands ono
could hear cries of “Stop Bcllino!”
whenever Winchester bad the ball.
And they stopped Joe, but not until
be bad fought for every inch he
could get.
And once again the replacements!
had a chance to get some real ox - j
perienee. That will will mean a lot j
when Winchester meets Wnkefield i
tomorrow. Wakefield’s game was
canceled, and no one can say
whether they will profit or lose by
not playing for two weeks. But
don’t sell Winchester short on that
game at Wakefield.
Due to the postponement, only a
. mall crowd saw the game. Bel-
mont’s band did a fine job between
the halves and Winchester’s
| Tumblers delighted the crowd with
their clever performance.
Just a reminder that only 75 cent
tickets will be on sale at the game
at Wakefield tomorrow. Tickets for
adults, school children nnd kids are
on sale at Ifevey’s nnd McCorm-
ack’s.

Paul W. Dillingham, Jr., known
during bis football and track days
at Winchester High as “Pete”, is
today receiving the commission of
Ensign of the Line at Newport
Naval Station, Newport, R. I. Ho
lias been ordered to proceed to
Guam for 18 months for his initial
duty as a Navy officer.
“Pete” went to Harvard from
Winchester High, and there had a
brilliant career as a star diver on
the varsity swimming team. He
showed football promise as a back
on the freshman eleven, scoring
against Yale, but at the insistance
of the swimming coach at Harvard
lie gave up football for swimming.
During his four years as a col-
lege diving competitor he was de-
feated once in a dual meet, and he
defeated the same Yale diver four
years in a row, including their
freshman competition. He was se-
lected as a member of the All-
American Collegiate Swimming
Teams of 1951 and 1953.
Ensign Dillingham will spend
Thanksgiving with his parents, Lt.
Col. and Mrs. Paul W. Dillingham,
and bis sisters, Ann and Deborah,
at Fort Hamilton, N. Y. They will
see him off from LaGuardia Air
Field November 26 on the first leg
of his journey to Guam.

We do hope that no offense is
taken from this column for it is
not the intentions of this writer to
humiliate anyone.
In last week’s column we stated
the 8 different styles of bowling
but one of the most important ones
was omitted.
No. 9 Atlas
One who has to have a ball in
each hand to balance himself. The
most prominent of this type bowl-
ers are Hokie and “Creeper” Gene.
The team which is in second place,
Holy Cross, is breathing down the
nocks of the leaders. This team
consists of Babe Tofuri, Hokie Pro-
copio, Dominic and Peter Provin-
zano, Richie Penta and Orlando
Sirbrizzio.
The reasons why they are in sec-
ond place are as follows: “Babe”
has to bowl good to hold that fam-
ous Tofuri name in the limelight.
“Two ball” Hokie prominent and
good will citizen of Winchester
Soft Ball fame, Dominic well known
man about town and great telephone
receiver. Pete his brother well
known masseur, Richie one of our
new fighting “B. D.’s” who carries
that fight to the howling alleys.
Last but not least “Ollie” man of
very few words, well liked, a great
listener.
The winner of this weeks raffle
was a well known philanthropist

JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP
The Junior High Fellowship of
the First Congregational Church
will meet at 4:30 p. m. on Sunday,
November 15, in the Junior High
Room.
The discussion on “Our Church,
What Goes Into It?” will be in
charge of Sally Scott and Peter
Gowing. In charge of refresh-
ments are Gretchen Mueller, Tim
Reynolds and Howard Bates, Jr.
Also on the program is a service
project of making Christmas stock-
ings to be filled with candy for the
Boston City Missionary.
Winchester goes to Wakefield
tomorrow foi its annual football
with Wnkefield High. A lot
'b on this game, for Wakefield,
unbeaten in six games, has been
leading Class B and a win for the
Scarlet will put it in a good position
to cop the division title.
Everybody seems to think Wake-
held is a shoo-in to heat Winches-
ter. primarily because the Scarlet
13 undefeated nnd because it has
;< 1 UpOtl only once all
season. Winchester’s detractors
point to the Indians’ defeat at the
hands of Class C Concord and the
f ft et that every team on their
schedule has scored against the
locals.
As far as the scoring is concern- 1
od Winchester undoubtedly could
have kept its opponents’ scoring
Wft .V below what it has been if |
Coach Knowlton had kept his first!
string in more of the time. As for
the Concord defeat, the Indians just
hadn’t jelled in that first game of
the season, against a veteran team
and don’t forget there are not too ■
many Class B teams that could bent
Concord on any one given day.
They have beaten every Class B
team they have played in recent
years.
Now let’s take a peak at mighty
Wnkefield. Whom have they play-
0( 1 ? Nothing too stout in the way
opposition, Lexington, Stone- 1
ham, Woburn. Danvers, Revere j
and Melrose. This surely is no bet- i
ter opposition than Winchester has
faced. As a matter of fact the
Scarlet hasn’t played two teams ns
good as Concord nnd Watertown.
Revere is woefully weak this year,
yet Revere was the team that scored
against Wakefield.
Winchester and Wakefield have
played two teams in common. !
Stoneham and Melrose. Wakefield i
beat Stoneham 19-0 while Winches-
ter won, 26-13. Winchester beat
Melrose in a rugged game, 20-13.
while Wakefield routed Melrose,
34-0. That undoubtedly is one rea-
son so many feel Wakefield will
easily win on Saturday.
Tn this connection it is interest-
ing to get the reactions of the
Stoneham and Melrose coaches.
Tony DcTeso of Stoneham feels
Wakefield will beat Winchester.
Joe Austin of Melrose thinks Win-
chester will win, and says frankly
it was the physical beating his
charges took from Winchester that
accounted for the poor Melrose
showing at Wakefield. Cerretani,
Shimmins nnd Malone, three Mel-
rose stars could ho used only spar-
ingly in that game.
A year ago Winchester beat
Wakefield, 20-0. Giving Wakefield
credit for improvement this season,
and granted that Winchester does-
n’t have any Serieka or Griffin in
its backfield, the Star still does not
feel that this year’s club is so far
below last year’s team as to have
no chance tomorrow.

We figure the game a toss-up.
Surely it will he no cinch for either
team. Wakefield has a good line
and some fast shifty backs. Win-
chester has good backfield balance
and a heavy line that at times has
looked very good. Incidentally Tim
Hennessey, 200 pound guard, will
be in there against Wakefield.
Wakefield, undefeated and scored
on only once, is undoubtedly the
favorite over once beaten and once
!tied Winchester. It will, however,
: have to be a lot better than it was
when it beat Danvers, 7-0, to out-
class the Indians, and the Scarlet
may find the outright cancellation

WINCHESTER COLLEGE CLUB
ART GROUP
The Art Group of the Winchester
College Club was not scheduled to
start meetings until January. But,
it seemed unfortunate that any
group studying ai t, even an embryo
one, should miss the unusual Jap-
anese exhibit offered by the
Museum of Fine Arts beginning the
15th of Nov. Consequently, plans
have been made for the Art Group
to visit this exhibit on Nov. 20th.
At 2:00 p. m. Mr. Jairo Harada,
liason officer of the Tokyo National
Museum will speak on some aspect
of the exhibit, following which the
Art Group will view the exhibit it-
self.
If anyone needs transportation
or can offer transportation for this
trip she may call Mrs. Wm. Pearce,
WI 6-1194-R. Those who have not
already expressed an interest in
the Group, but wish to do so are
urged to call Mrs. George B. Heath,
WI 6-2731.
D. A. R.
Arthur J. Connell, National Com-
mander of the American Legion has
proclaimed the period of November
11, (Armistice Day) to November
26, (Thanksgiving Day) to be
known as American Legion Weeks,
during which period every Post of
the organization is called upon to
embrace a membership campaign
known as “Knock On Every Door
For ’54”.
In issuing his proclamation the
National Commander said, in part,
“Our power is greater than we
know. Let us assert that power
with vigor and courage, in devotion
to the ideals for which we fought
and so many of our comrades died.
God willing, we shall add new and
brighter stars to the crown of
American Legion achievement”.
Francis J. “Joe” Hart, Jr., Senior
Vice Commander of Middlesex
County and chairman of its mem-
bership committee urges every
Post within the county to join in
this membership campaign. He
believes that as the members of the
various Posts “knock on every door
for ’64” they will be voicing an ap-
peal in behalf of every thinking
American, — an appeal for the wel-
fare of thousands of veterans who
lie crippled or ill us a result of their
sacrifices in this nation’s defense.
He says “American Legion mem-
bership is a living thing. It lives
for our disabled veterans and their
dependents. It lives for every
needy or homeless child in America.
It lives for every veteran. It lives
for 4 God and Country’.”

The Star opposes the abolition
of Winchester’s grade crossing by
raising the tracks through town.
This will hardly in* news to those
who have been reading the paper
for any length of time. We have
always opposed raising the tracks
and even the great weight of official
opinion in favor hasn’t caused us
to change our mind. We have not,
however, had much to say about the
matter recently, feeling that after
the action of the 1952 and ’53 town
meetings, and the referendum
which followed the vote of the
meeting last April, no good purpose
would be served by continuing to
harp upon the subject as it stood
then. We would have been content
to let matters take their course
now, leaving the arguments pro and
con to those in favor of the great
wall through Winchester and its
opponents, hut the argument now-
being advanced .by the overhead
crossing proponents that those op-
posing the project by means of a
referendum are departing from the
democratic processes of good gov-
ernment prompts us to make one
more observation. From the time
the arguments for abolishing the
grade crossing began to crystalize
into the proposal to raise the tracks
to this end the chairmen of Select-
men have assured those opposed to
the plan that a meeting would have
to he called for the purpose of hav-
ing the town appropriate money for
land damages before a final vote
on the matter could be taken. At
a meeting in March of 1952 Mr.
Freeman asked whether a meeting
had to be held to appropriate money
for damages before work could
commence on the overhead tracks,
and Mr. Lyman, then chairman of
the Board of Selectmen, said that
such a meeting would have to he
held and the town would have an-
other chance to decide upon the
i»lan when the necessary funds for
damages came up for consideration.
These words stressed are impor-
tant. At an adjourned session of
the March town meeting of 1952 an
article came up for consideration by
the precinct members to establish a
committee of three favorable to an
alternate plan for the abolition of
the grade crossing with power to
expend part of the unexpended
balance of a grade crossing appro-
priation made in 1944 for study
and technical advice to prepare an
alternate plan of abolition and
present it to the town at the earli-
est possible date. Mrs. Woodside,
one of those who inserted the ar-
ticle in the warrant, consented to
its being indefinitely postponed, but
before this was done she was satis-
fied by Mr. Greer, then chairman
of the Board of Selectmen, that the
Selectmen would call a meeting at
which final plans for the overhead
with costs, and the cost of land
takings would be submitteed for
approval by the voters. Again the
stressed words are important.
Subsequently a referendum was
held on the vote of t lie 1953 town
meeting authorizing the Select-
men to cooperate with state and
county officials to bring about the
abolition of the grade crossing by
raising the tracks. The referen-
dum supported the town meeting
members by a decisive margin, hut
it should he remembered that at
the time there was no definite
plan for acceptance nor cost avail-
able, either for the entire plan or
land damages. As a matter of fact
at the 1952 meeting Mr. Lyman
stated that the cost for land dam-
ages, if the temporary tracks went
to the east of the present road-lied,
would be about $63,365.00. But
this is beside the point. What is
important is that until the recently
held special town meeting oppo-
nents of the overhead plan for abo-
lition of the grade crossing had no
finished plan presented for their I
approval, nor definite cost given
them for land damages or for tin*
entire plun, which hud in the in- '
terim been altered to include a div ,
ersionnry highway, one of the
! things for which opponents of the
overhead plan of abolition have al-
ways stood. So it would seem to
the Star, at least, that nt the spe-
cial town meeting for the first time,
h specific plan of abolition nnd
definite (we hope) costs were pre-
sented, as promised by Mr. Ly-
nmn and Mr. Greer in their capa-
cities as chairmen of their Boards
of Selectmen. The meeting was
called for but one purpose, to con-
sider definite* commitment to the
overhead plan and to appropriate
money for land damages. The dele-
gates voted by an overwhelming
majority of those present nnd vot-
ing to authorize the Selectmen to
m a k e definite agreements to
abolish the crossing by raising the
tracks and to appropriate the $190,-
000 necessary for land damages.
| Those who drew* up our limited
form of town meeting wrote into
it the referendum clause as a
check against important questions
being decided by too small a num-
ber of the town’s voters. There-
for we see nothing undemocratic
in those dissatisfied with a vote of
town meeting members invoking a
referendum to make sure that the
town as a whole agrees or dis-
agrees. That is what has been
done in this instance. We can see
no flouting of the democratic pro-
cesses in so doing. Perhaps we do
not understand democracy at work!
That could he, hut if we do, we feel
strongly that the opponents of the
overhead had, on the assurance of
two Chairmen of Selectmen, the
right to believe that the recently
held special town meeting was call-
ed to |fre sent for their approval
final plans for the overhead and
cost to the town. No one can deny
that this special meeting is the first
at which such costs have been pre-
sented and more or less finished
plans have been shown. Opponents
of the plun do not feel that the vote
of the precinct members is repre-
sentative of the feeling of the en-
tire town. They have consequently
invoked a referendum as provided
by our town meeting bylaw. The
Star is glad that they have. It
hopes that every one, eligible to
vote and able- to do so, will cast his
ballot on this important question
which will affect the town material-
ly for all time. So far nothing like
a majority of the tow*n’s electorate
has voted on the overhead tracks
proposal. Let us have the thing
really decided beyond argument this
[ time!
WINCHESTER TUBERCULOSIS
COMMITTEE MEETING
A review of thr activities for
tuberculosis control being conduct-
ed in Winchester through the Win-
chester Tuberculosis Committee nnd
an announcement of the coming
1953 Christmas Seal Sale were
presented by Mrs. Harlow Russell,
chairman of the committee nt its
recent meeting on October 23.
Member* of the committee also in-
clude Mrs. Franklin J. Lane, Treas-
urer; Mrs. Richard J. Clark, Mrs.
John I. Donovan, Mrs. Philip C.
Efromson, Mrs. R. Darrell Harvey,
Mrs. Henry Moffotte, Mrs. Sanford
H. Moses, Jr., past chairman; and
Mrs. William Spaulding. Among
the programs being carried on in
Winchester which Mrs. Russell re-
viewed were chest X-rays for em-
ployees in industries in town. As
part of this current program for in-
dustries, 600 X-rays were taken at
the Boggs & Cobh Company when
an X-ray van recently visited the
company.
Mrs. Russell also explained the
scholarship funds which are avail-
able for nurses as another part of
the activities sponsored by the com-
mittee. Through Mrs. Russell’s
committee, a program is being con-
ducted to provide scholarships for
courses which will help school and
public health nurses in their jobs.
Mrs. Russell also announced nt
the meeting that the 1953 Christ-
mast Seal Sale will open on No-
vember 16 with the mailing of
Christmas Seals to all residents of
Winchester. Through the Win-
chester Tuberculosis Committee the
Seals will be mailed to local resi-
dents as part of the yearly distribu-
tion of Christmas Seals by tubercu-
losis associations throughout the
country.
In announcing the opening of this
year’s Christmas seal sale, Mrs.
Russell said, “If anyone does not re-
ceive Christmas Seals in their mail
during the week of November 16,
they can get a supply at Ruth Por-
ter’s Real Estate office at 33
Thompson street.
The next meeting of the Tuber-
cujosis Committee was scheduled
for November 16, with Mr. David
Moxon, Executive Director of the
Middlesex Health Association, the
local tuberculosis association, as the
Committee’s guest.
FRIENDS OF WINCHESTER!
QUESTIONS SKILLINGS BYPASS!
Editor of the Star:
The vote at the recent special
town meeting approving the plan
for changing the grade of the rail-
road also authorized the cutting of
a new highway through the town
property known as the Skillings es-
tate and the construction of a large
traffic circle at Washington and
| Mount Vernon streets,
j This action greatly surprised me
! in view of the fact that the Select*
I men were authorized by a special
' town meeting called for the purpose
in June, 1943, to purchase this
sightly property “as a site for a
New Town Hall Building or other
building for the public use”. The
sum voted was $32,000.00 and the
vote was unanimous.
In my opinion this property
should he used for the purpose for
which it was purchased.

TEMPORARY TRACKS LOCATED
(C’ontirned from Page It
As it heads for Winchester Sta-
tion the temporary tracks cut
through the properties of the Fitz-
gerald Brothers, Powers, McCart-
ney, McGrath, Roberts, Hurley,
Harrington, Grant, Powell, Burns
and Marchant, the encroachment
decreasing from 18 feet at the
Powers property to 8 feet at the
middle of the Marchant land
Reaching the signal control build-
ing to the south of the \\ inchester
Station the temporary tracks pass
to the east, or in front of the build-
ing by some three feet at the nar-
rowest point, passing through the
present parking lot adjacent to the
present inbound tracks nt tin sta-
tion and light through the middle
of the present Station building
which will be temporarily moved
back to occupy a part of the present
parking lot behind the station.
From the station the temporary
tracks continue through the easter-
i ly side of Common street toward
the square, approximately 30 foot
from the present inbound roadbed
with a distance of from 20 to 25
feet between the temporary in-
bound, or westerly tracks, and the
curb along the easterly side of the
Common. The trees located on the
common will not be disturbed by
the location of the temporary
tracks, but some seven or so trees
on railroad property along the
present tracks will have to he re-
moved.
At the junction of Common and
Church streets in the center the
temporary tracks will he 31 feet
from the present inbound tracks
and 15 feet from the present grano-
lithic apron at the tip of the Com-
mon where Church and Common
streets meet. The removal of this
apron, which seems likely, will in-
crease this space to 27 feet and one
way traffic to the station should he
possible along Common street west
of the temporary tracks.
Through the center the tempor-
ary tracks go to the west of the
gate control and traffic tower, the
outbound track being two feet
from the tower at the nearest point.
At the Shell Gas Station the tem-
porary track cut through the
present yard to a depth of 3fi feet
and take 17 feet from the building.
At the First National store the
tracks go through the southeasterly
part of the building to a depth of
33 feet and at the parking lot the
taking tapers from 33 feet to zero
along a distance of 100 feet. There
are practically no other takings at
that point.
The temporary tracks cross the
Woburn loop at the rear of the First
National Parking area and proceed
northerly beside the present tracks
approximately 29 feet from the
present inbound rails. For the most
part the temporary roadbed goes
through Town of Winchester Park-
land. At the culvert on Shore road
the temporary tracks are located
32 feet west of the culvert and will
pass over the Aberjona at that
point on a trestle.
Continuing northerly the tem-
porary tracks go past the freight
yard off Summer street, using the
existing siding tracks with a
switchover at about the location of
the one in use there.
At Swanton street where the
road is to be depressed, as Bacon
street is to he lowered, the tem-
oorary tracks will he eight feet
from the present tracks and there
are shown on the map tracks al-
ready substantially in this location.
From this point the temporary
tracks veer toward the present
tracks until they meet about 1,400
feet north of Swanton street.
No land takings are necessary
at Bacon street, and there as at
Swanton street the depressed road
will be in the same location as the
present road.
At the Swanton street depression
an access road is necessary for
abuttors to the north of the road
east of the tracks. For this pur-
pose a trip of land 15 feet wide
must be taken for a distance of 340
feet from property owned by Stra-
nieri, Marehesi. Maffio, Vozzella,
I.uongo and McCarthy. On the
southerly side of the road a retain-
ing wall must be built below ground
level to a width of two feet. Little,
if any taking will be necessary in
this location but Spruce street will
become a dead-end street at Swan-
ton street.
To the west of the underpass
there must be access highways on
both sides of the street, takings on
the southerly side varying in depth
from 13 to 1 1 feet, and coming from
land of Penta, Michienzi and Lynch.
Takings on the northerly side vary
from 8 to 10 feet and come from
land of Mole, Bordinaro, Violante,
Fitzgerald Fuel Company and the
Aberjona Civic Association. An
access roadway to the dump will go
from Swanton street between the
Fuel Company nnd Civic Associa-
tion land.
The map which the Star reporter
looked at did not show the location
of any temporary tracks beside
those of the present Woburn loop,
hut if there : . re to he temporary
tracks there, ♦here would he little
if any land taking.
Other items of interest in con-
nection with the overhead scheme
is the construction of a traffic cir-
cle in the center, 100 feet at its
widest part from east to west and
130 feet at the widest part from
north to south. Westerly from the
circle to the new sidewalk at Mc-
Cormack’s Pharmacy will he 34
feet, and five feet will he taken
from the width of the present side-
walk at McCormack’s, this taking
widening to a depth of ten feet at
Park street in front of the Hillside
Paint and Wallpaper Company.
At the Winchester Drug Com-
pany corner a triangular piece is
taken about 10 by 10 feet, including
both the sidewalk and a part of the
existing building. With the taking
the roadway from the circle to the
Winchester Drug sidewalk will he
36 feet, and from the circle to the
sidewalk at Lyceum Building in
front of the Foley Office it will he
33 feet. The sidewalk at Hevey’s
corner will be 65 feet from the cir-
cle.
The new overhead tracks through
the center will be about the same
width as they are now. The stone
wall of the overhead commences
about 120 feet below the present
Winchester Station and extends
through the center to a point some
300 feet north of the present cross-
ing, or so it appears from the map.
Beyond the extremities of the wall
the tracks will he supported by fill.
The street under the tracks at 1
Winchester Station joining Com-
mon street with Waterficld road
will be 40 feet wide with a span of
54 feet above the road to cover
sidewalks. Chairman Greer of the
Selectmen expects that this street
will be of great value while the
heaviest of the work is being done
in the center, and points out that
although the entire project will
take some two years to complete,
the area will not he torn up over
its entire length during all of that
time, it being the plan to proceed
gradually with as little disruption
to business and traffic as possible.
With the tracks raised at Wedge-
mere Station there will have to be
retaining walls on both sides of
Bacon street as it will be depressed,
hut no access roads are needed
there, though there will he an un-
derpass for pedestrians at the sta-
tion.

POLICE HELD ANNUAL BALL
The usual large turnout was tit
the town hall Monday evening for
tlie annual concert and hall of the
Winchester Police Relief Associ-
ation.
Six acts of vaudeville opened
with Kenny and May, Jap tumblers
and acrobats; followed by Elwin
Shaw, “the honest pickpocket”;
Harris and Shore, dance team;
Lindy Doherty, “singing star” of
Capitol records; Don Hooton, the
"Broadway Cowboy”; and Edna
and Leon, "European Novelty Sen-
sations”. *
Don Hooton doubled by acting as
master of ceremonies and he filled
this important role most accept-
ably. Elwin Shaw had the assist -
enee of several stooges from the
audience who went to the stage to
have their valuables removed from
their persons with rediculous ease.
Lindy Doherty proved very
popular with his varied songs, and
in fact the entire hill was one of
the best seen at the town hall for
some time. The George A. Hamid
Office furnished the talent which
was under the personal supervision
of Jacy Collier, a favorite in Win-
chester for some years.
Music for the show was furnish-
ed by Bill Crosby and his Orchestra,
and the same musicians played
most acceptably for dancing after
the show.
Chief Charles J. Hnrrold acted as
Moor marshall for the dancing with
Sgt. Edward F. Bowler as floor
director and Officer Archie O’Con-
nell as chief of aides.
Officer John P. McHugh was
chairman of the ball committee
with Lt. Joseph J. Derro, treasurer.
Officers of the Winchester Police
Relief Association include:

gerty

MONTICEI LO DUE
FOR RENOVATION
Historic Monticello, crammed by
builder Thomas Jefferson with in-
genious devices for comfort and
convenience, will soon be fitted with
two modern facilities air con-
ditioning and central heating.
The 180-year-old showplace is to
be renovated from roof to cellar
this fall. Basement rooms, includ-
ing Jefferson’s renowned wine and
beer cellars, will be restored for
the first time. Work will be direct-
ed by the Thomas Jefferson Memo-
rial Foundation, which bought
Monticello in 1023 and maintains it
as a national shrine, says the Nat-
ional Geographic Society.
Sky-top Home
Last year 200,000 visitors toured
the house that was Jefferson’s home
from 1770 until bis death in 1826.
Located on a leveled mountain top,
it looks down on Charlottesville,
home of the University of Virginia
which Jefferson founded, and the
distant Blue Ridge Mountains.
Jefferson spent 30 years build-
ing, changing, adding to, and sub-
tracting from stately Monticello,
which means “little mountain’’ in
Italian. His designs, derived from
those of the Italian architect An-
drea Palladio, helped introduce
Roman classical architecture to
America.
Built of native red brick and tim-
bers hewed on the property, Monti-
cello boasts Roman-Doric porticos
on both west and east fronts — one
for receiving public figures and the
other for family friends and guests.
Three presidents — John Adams,
James Madison and James Monroe
— were among the mansion’s fre-
quent house guests.
Monticello has three stories and
basement with a total of 35 rooms.
Kitchens, servant quarters, stables,
dairy and other utility rooms are in
extensive basement wings, partial-
ly buried under terraces and
promenades which make them al-
most invisible from both fronts.
Many Innovations
In the mansion’s 13 bedrooms
there is not a single bedstead; al-
coves provided with wall hooks for
mattress supports of rope were de-
vised by Jefferson. His own bed
was in an alcove between study and
bedroom. It was so rigged that it
could he raised to the ceiling hy
day, permitting him to walk be-
tween the two rooms.
Other Jeffersonian “gadgets” in-
clude hidden stairways; folding
glass doors that move in unison
when only one is touched; dumb-
waiters concealed in the dining
room mantelpiece for direct two-
way traffic with the wine cellar; an
interior weather vane connected
with one on the roof-top; and a
clock than can be lead from inside
or outside the house and marks the
days of the week as well as the
hour.
Monticello also contains what are
said to he the first storm windows
ever used in America, and the
countrys’ first parquet floors —
lustrous 10-inch squares of rose-
wood, satimvood, walnut and
cherry. The library held almost
10,000 volumes in 1814. Sold to
Congress, it was the foundation of
the present Library of Congress.

REMEMBER
This Sunday is Loyalty Sunday. Speak-
ing of finances, our guess is that Julius Fa-
Rosa received as much money in about five
days as some farmers have to work over
one-half a life time for and never save in
a whole lift* time. A local rector in
Klsed, England said recently that he could-
n’t understand why singer Johnnie Ray got
S30.000.00 for two weeks for singing and
crying when lie couldnt’ collect 661 *.06
needed to repair his church.
In our conception of values, the Church
of Christ should be right on the top of
the list. We do not want riches. We only
ask that you give <»f your material store-
house as God blesses you. Some people give
without feeling a hit of sacrifice. Others
actually have to cut corners when they
pledge to the church. Sacrificial giving
could solve every financial problem of the
church. God measures your loyalty in one
way hy what and how you give.
Remember, the government makes n very
liberal allowance up to 20' , and one of the
main reasons is for your giving to the
church, the "Greatest Hope For The
World’’. Give to the extent that you may
feel God’s sanction. The church asks for
no more than enough to meet its nexsis.

WINCHESTER GRADE CROSSING
the argi mknts answered
Editor of the Stnr:
The m Kuments against the plan
for the abolition of the grade
crossing R seems to me me based j
solely on criticism and objection. |
The opponents offer nothing con- ,
structivc; they have no different
or better plan. The chief reasons
which they give for voting against
the plan now before us are stated
below.
First: The opponents say that
there will be great inconvenience
and disturbance during the period
of construction, and that hardship
will fall on numerous citizens
whose property will he affected.
It is comon knowledge that this
happens hi most instances when an
important public improvement is
made. If similar arguments had
prevailed in the past our sewer
and water systems and many of
our public school buildings would
never have been constructed. It is
of course unfortunate that changes
must be made at Swanton street
which will be detrimental to some
of the residents there, but many
of them will benefit by a wider and
safer street. And it should be borne
in mind that all those whose prop-
erty is injured will he entitled un-
der the law to just compensation.
Second: The opponents say that
schools should come first; that this
appropriation may jeopardize our
school building program.
School building projects, to my
own knowledge, have been on the
agenda in Winchester ever since
1918. Such projects involving large
expenditures have been included on
the Six-Year Program of Public
Work: in every year since the pro-
gram was first set up in 1939. In
this town, whose population is
bound to grow, we shall continually
he fa ' -d with school building pro-
jects. To await the day when no
such expenditures are in prospect
mean postponing the grade cross-
ing abolition for all the forsee-
able future — a prospect seriously
prejudi* ial to the proper develop-
ment «>f the center and wise plan-
ing for the future of Winchester,
a prospect discouraging to all for-
ward looking citizens.
Our financial house is now in or-
der, thanks to the foresight of
boards of selectmen, finance com-
mittee .and planning boards. Now
is the time to dispose of the grade
crossing matter for all time, when
we can do so at a relatively small
cost which we are assured will not
impair our ability to finance the
school building projects immediate-
ly in prospect.
Third: The opponents say —
"Let’s build that by-pass first and
see if that won’t solve the prob-
lem/’
The proposed by-pass under the
complete abolition plan now pre-
sented will cross the Skillings lot
and intersect Main street at grade
at a point near Blind Bridge street,
passing underneath the main line
and the Woburn branch of the ele-
vated railroad. If it is not built ns
a part of the abolition plan, of
course it must cross the rail-
road tracks either by means of
bridges above the tracks or at
grade. If by means of bridges, get-
ting down to the present grade of
Main street would require the con-
struction of a bridge over Main
street and a traffic circle on the
west side of the street, with ap-
proaches, and several expensive
land takings would be necessary.
If the by-pass were built at
grade over the tracks, we would
then have two more grade cross-
ings on our hands, one at the high-
way crossing over the main line of
the railroad, and another at the
crossing over the Woburn branch.
These two additional grade cross-
ings would compound the present
nuisance and danger. Such a plan
is unthinkable. And indeed it is ex-
tremely unlikely that the State De-
partment of Public Utilities and
the County Commissioner would
permit it.
Moreover, if ihe town wishes to
construct the by-pass independent-
ly of the grade crossing abolition,
the cost to us would be many times
the $190,000 which we are now ask-
ed to contribute toward the com-
plete project,
plete abolition project.
Fourth: The opponents say that
the plan is too expensive, and that
the state is not justified in spend-
ing so much money for a local pro-
ject.
A strange argument indeed. This
improvement is not for Winchester
alone; it is for the benefit of all
the traveling public. This principle
has been recognized ever since
1890, when the first general statute
of the Commonwealth providing
for the abolition of grade crossings
was enacted. Throughout the years
public funds have always been used
in part to defray the cost; and the
contribution of the local munici-
pality hus been relatively small, ne-
ver more than ten per cent.
It has been stated by the oppo-
sition that Winchester is able to
finance its own public improve-
ments and should refuse to accept
a "handout." But the taxpayers of
Winchester have paid and will con-
tinue to pay their part of the taxes
for similar improvements, not only
in Metropolitan Boston, but
throughout the state. In plain jus-
tice we are entitled to an allocation
of funds for a long overdue aboli- :
tion of a grade crossing which is
conceded by state authorities to be,
if not the most dangerous and ob-
jectionable in the state, then next
to it.
Fifth: The opponents say that
former plans should be revived and
that more time is needed to reach
a satisfactory solution.
A revival of old plans will ac-
complish nothing. During the last
•17 years every conceivable plan
has been studied. A tunnel for the
railroad underneath the center,
which to laymen would seem an at-
tractive solution but which, inci-
dentally, would require longer
ramps or stairways, has been re-
jected as not feasible by every
qualified engineer who has studied
it. The only practicable schemes
of abolition in the opinion of Col-
onel Moore, the town’s own engin-
eering consultant, whose wide ex-
perience and national reputation
give weight to his judgment, and
in the opinion of the state engin-
eers, arc three in number: (1) an
overhead bridge for a new highway
north of the crossing, (a modified
Kellaway plan),' (2> an overhead
bridge for a new highway south
of the crossing (a modified Yinal
plan) and (3) an elevation of the
railroad as now proposed.
All three plans have been fully
explained and publicized to the
voters and citizens at public hear-
ings, at town meetings, in the town
reports and the Star. The first two
have been rejected repeatedly. But
for the benefit primarily of the
newer voters a brief explanation
may be in order.
The scheme involving an over-
head bridge to be built about 400
feet north of the crossing would
include a new highway across the
Skillings lot and to Main street,
but p; <\ ent-day state and federal
construction standards would make
necessary a traffic circle with ap-
proaches in the vicinity of Elm-
wood uvenue, Vine street and
Wedge I’ond road, requiring about
20 tukings of property, including
the whole or parts of some 16
buildings, most of which are resi-
dences, and about half of the front
lawn of the Congregational Church.
It would result in injury to prop-
erty owners of staggering propor-
tions. It would involge the com-
plete blocking off and closing of the
present grude crossing. It would
result in irreparable injury to the
business center and great incon-
venience to local inhabitants by
reason of the long and circuitous
routes necessary to pass from one
side of the center to the other.
The scheme involving an over-
head bridge south of the crossing
contemplates a bridge a few feet
south of the Winchester railroad
station. This plan also would re-
quire the blocking ofT of the exist-
ing crossing. It would make neces-
ary the demolition of several busi-
ness blocks and houses on Church
street and Main street, a large traf-
fic circle at Church street, and the
construction of a new highway be-
tween those two streets. The high-
way would cross Manchester Field,
the new athletic field, and the jun-
ior high school athletic field, with
embankments and approaches uti-
lizing a large part of those areas.
A less elaborate plan involving a
bridge south of the center pro-
posed in 191G was judicially con-
sidered and rejected by the State
Public Service Commission because
it was so inconvenient and did not
provide an adequate substitute for
existing facilities.
Sixth: The opponents say that
the elevation of the railroad will
"divide” the town and set up a
wall between the east and west.
Existing conditions, with the
crossing blocked much of the time
and no other means of passing, ex-
cept at Bacon street or Swanton
street, no matter what the emer-
gency may be, constitute a division
and a barrier far more real and
more serious than an embankment
with underpasses which will permit
unobstructed passage at all times,
not only at the present site of the
crossing, but for good measure at
a new and additional crossing place
at Common street and Waterfield
road.
The oponents also paint a pic-
ture of unsightly bridges and walls.
The present grade crossing with its
multiple gates, gate stands and
control tower are not things of
beauty; but we are assured, if such
assurance in these days is neces-
sary, that in the new construction
attention will be paid to aesthetic
features. The attractive appearance
of bridges and walls separating
grades under present construction
practices of the state gives us no
cause to fear that we shall see here
the unsightly structures built when
grade crossings were abolished a
generation ago.
It is reassuring to know that our
abolition plan will be carried out by
the State Dept, of Public Works
under the direction of our esteemed
fellow - townsman, Commissioner
Volpe, who recommends the plan,
who has the welfare of his commu-
nity as well as the state at heart
and whose sound judgment we all
have reason to respect.
Those who would reject this plan
are arguing in effect for a continu-
ance of existing conditions. It is
difficult to believe that any fully-
informed citizen would vote to per-
petuate this well-nigh intolerable
grade crossing, the abolition of
which has been so long sought and
is so plainly required in the inter-
ests of the public convenience and
the public safety.
A "Yes” vote at the referendum
next Friday, the 20th, will be a
vote for the everlasting benefit of
the town. The result of the voting
should leave no doubt that this is
the plan which Winchester wants
and that Winchester wants it now.
Respectfully submitted,

PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE!
Editor of the Star:
"Mrs. Elliott, your little boy has
been in a bad accident at the Win-
chester Grade Crossing.” That was
the message brought to my mother
from the Winchester Police some
GO years ago. A good little kid was
brought home in a basket from the
Grade Crossing. A good little kid
on his way home from school.
Thirty years later, "Al, please
come home, your brother Danny has
been in a had accident at the Win-
chester Grade ('tossing.” That was
the message brought to me by
Charlie O’Connell, the late brother
of Lieutenant "Eddie” of the Win-
chester Police Department.
I said, "Charlie, could it happen
that two members of the same fam-
ily could have been killed at this
‘Death Trap’?” He said, "Al, it’s
so, Danny is gone.” Danny Elliott,
not anybody of note, but still my
brother anil a great guy in my
book.
Winchester people, this note does
not make good reading but it is
facts.
When my first brother was killed
there was u movement to do away
with the Crossing. Was it done?
NO!
So now I usk you, please! Let us
all vote to raise the track before
someone else gets one of these
sumo messages.

HAS CHANGED HIS MIND
Editor of the Star:
Two or so years ago I was one of
a group who signed nn appeal to
the voters in favor of raising the
tracks. Since then I have changed
my mind. 1 had intended to say so
at the special town meeting, but I
understand I am not the only per-
son who refrained from doing so
because of the personal attacks and
innuendos launched at the pro-
ponents of the plan.
The men who for many years
have served our town and our Com-
monwealth, and are in favor of this
plan, are of the highest integrity
and have unselfishly given their
time and ability in public service
without hope or thought of gain or
reward. Present difference of
opinion does not lessen my regard
for them or my confidence in them.
The controversy should he based
on facts not personalities.
Recently, looking at the hideous
overhead structure in Lynn made
me realize that, of necessity ours
could not be much better. If there
were no alternative we should ac-
cept it, even with reluctance. But
it is my opinion that raising the
tracks should he only the last re-
sort if there were no other method.
Once raised they are there forever.
They will not he changed or taken
down until the railroad goes out of
business. Overpasses or under-
passes can be changed or modified
at any time. Highways can he laid
out and relocated at any time but
the raised tracks would be irre-
vocable.
The problem of abolishing the
crossing involves not only public
safety but the flow of traffic. Traf-
fic through our town has increased
tremendously in the past twenty
years. Our streets were not built
to carry the volume. In the next
twenty years there will be further
increase. I suggest that the over-
all problem involves not only the
center of Winchester but its bor-
ders. We need a highway to the
east which would carry the traffic
around us. In the old days there
was only a trickle on North Wash-
ington street. Today, with Route
128 in operation, there is a flood
poured through Winchester. Like-
wist* we need a highway to the west,
which, perhaps, may be provided by
the completion of Route 3.
Under the present plan all of the
present traffic, and all of the in-
evitable increase, will still travel
the same narrow streets right
through the center of our town. It
is possible that the raising of the
tracks, plus the overpass, will at-
tract even more traffic through
Winchester, in which case, Sym-
mes corner, Main street, and Wash-
ington street will be even more
over-burdened.
When 1 contemplate that after
raising the tracks we shall stand
on Mount Vernon street and see
railway trains cutting off the bel-
fry of the First Congregational
Church, I have come to believe that
we should do it only as a last re-
sort without other alternatives.

A CALAMITY THREATENS
Editor of the Star:
Since we are to have another
referendum which, though indirect-
ly, will determine whether the rail-
road crossing at the Center shall he
eliminated by elevating the tracks,
I beg you to publish the present
communication as my contribution
towards the defense of this town
against the calamity that is threat-
ening it.
Before casting his vote every
citizen should ask himself the three
following questions: Would the
construction of the projected wall
add to the beauty of the town ?
Would it increase real estate
values? Would it solve the traffic
problem? His vote should be de-
termined by the answers to those
questions.
The wall, no matter how clothed
or disguised by its proponents,
would deface Winchester from the
Medford to the Woburn line, by the
ugliness that is characteristic of
such walls and by the noise and
dust caused by the many trains
that would run on top of it. I can-
not understand how the citizens of
Winchester, so many of whom have
traveled thousands of miles over
land and sea to admire beauty in
Europe or America, can be recon-
ciled with the idea of having their
home town permanently scarred.
Moreover, the unattractive sight,
the louder noise, and larger clouds
of dust would reduce the value of
many fine homes for a distance of
at least half a mile on each side of
the tracks, and this devaluation
would eventually result in greatly
reduced tax revenue for the town.
And at the Center it is extremely
unlikely that anybody would be
rush enough to construct another
commercial building like Filene’s
with trains running parallel to
third story windows.
Finully, would the projected
elimination really solve the traffic
problem? No doubt truck drivers
traveling between Woburn and
Medford would save as much as
five minutes of their time, and the
Winchester shoppers who refuse to
use either Palmer or Bacon street
would have fewer occasions to he
impatient. But the problem would
still be with us, whether the traffic
continued on Main street or should
be detoured to Washington street.
We are told that it would cost
six million dollars to build the wall
and put the tracks on top. The
state would pay the six million, but
exactly what benefits would Win-
chester derive from this expense?
More and heavier through traffic,
more dust and noise, greater
danger to the lives of our school
children, more insomnia for the
adults, more ugliness to feed our
eyes upon, and less revenue for the
town treasury. Not only do I think
it would be folly to spend six mil-
lion dollars for such a wall, but I
fear that later the town would want
to spend another six million to have
it removed. If our officials can’t
think of a better plan, let them
leave the center as it is.

SCHOOLS PRIMARY PROBLEM
Editor of the Star:
A resident and a taxpayer in
Winchester for nearly eleven years,
I am somewhat discouraged by the
grade crossing controversy and by
what in my opinion appears to be
a lack of clear thinking on the
subject. Admittedly, my large fam-
ily and my experience of nearly
twenty years in engineering acti-
vity affect the views that I express.
Winchester is without question
one of the most desirable commu-
nities in which to live and to bring
up a family, large or small. Yet,
we must all accept the fact that the
physical plant provided for our jun-
ior and senior high school students
is not adequate. This is our pri-
mary responsibility and should be
fully discharged before any other
program is activated. All Winches-
ter parents, I am certain, are
thankful that plans are well under
way to correct the shortcomings of
the school plant.
I am not certain that the elimi-
nation of the grade crossing is as
important as many appear to claim.
It is not my purpose to discuss the
merits or demerits of the many
plans suggested. The point I wish
to make is that our town has a
greater need for additional school
facilities than for the grade cross-
ing elimination. It is doubtful that
we can afford both.
It is well to remember that
whether the federal government,
the state, the town or the B. &
M. provides the working capital is
of no real significance. It ultimate-
ly comes from the residents of
Winchester in higher taxes or in-
creased comutation fares.
Construction estimates for pro-
jects such as the grade crossing
are difficult to prepare and few
engineering projects of this nature
can be fully completed under cur-
rent conditions without exceeding
the estimated amounts.
It appears thut a clear cut an-
swer is needed as to why we should
become involved in such an expen-
I sive undertaking at the same time
that the more pressing problem of
improved school facilities must be
solved. The elimination of railroad
time for both vehicles and pedes
trians under the tracks from Com
mon street to Waterfield Road.
The question of cost has bother-
ed many. State funds earmarked
for this project will come from
money already appropriated by the
highway bond issue of 1952 and
will be financed by revenues from
the gasoline tax. No burden from
the state’s share will fall on real
estate.
The excess and deficiency fund
from which $190,000 was transfer-
red as tiie entire cost of the town’s
share in the project is money which
the town has saved for capital im-
provements such as this. It is avail-
able and will entail no future tax-
es. It is in existence to meet just
such contingencies as the crossing
project. It is not earmarked for any
one project nor for any one depart-
ment. This appropriation will not
wipe out the fund, which now
stands in excess of a half million
dollars and it need not affect our
school program.
Acceptance of this project now
will end the long period of indeci-
sion. The money is available now
from appropriations already made,,
and if we in Winchester do not ap-
prove tli is plan the state’s money
will be spent for a similar project
in some other comunity.
If we do not accept this project
now, it will be extremely difficult
to convince any state body in the
future that Winchester will ever
agree on a crossing elimination or
a traffic by-pass.
We urge all voters to VOTE
"YES” on November 20.
ONE CENTURY OF INDECI-
SION IS ENOUGH.
V. Farnsworth, Jr., Chairman
Committee for Grade Crossing
Elimination and Traffic By-Pass
A STAGGERING LOAD
CONFRONTS US
Editor of the Star:
At the last Town Meeting I gave
the following reasons in support
of my stand in opposition to the
present plan for the elimination of
the grade crossing:
( 1 ) The damage to homes and
consequent depreciation in proper- 1
ty values in the Rangeley section
of our town.
(2) The plain fnct that several
homes on Swanton and Spruce
streets will he so ruinously affected
by the present plan:
(a) Spruce street under the
plan will for two years or more
have temporary tracks placed
close to the back doors of the
houses. Replacing these tracks
the overhead structure will
rise, its sides composed of
cinders and fill. This structure
will be n detriment to health,
to safety, and to property
valuation. Spruce street at its
junction with Swanton will be-
come dead-end as it meets a
wall 12 feet in height.
(b) Swanton street will be,
from Cedar to Holland streets,
a depressed roadway, its sides
supported by thick, high re-
taining walls. The several
houses in this affected area will
be down behind the retaining
walls, some at a depth of 18 to
20 feet. The front yards of
these homes will be taken to
form part of narrow 15-foot
service roads by which the
people will get necessary
deliveries.
I deeply resent the fact that the
citizens in charge of promoting the
overhead and depressed road
structure had no meeting with these
people before the voting on this
matter at the* two Town Meetings
and one previous referendum to
show t hem just what they could
expect in the event of the passage
of this plan.
(c) I sympathize with our
merchants in the Square who
will lose their business in-
comes, practically, during the
necessary upheaval in their
midst for two years or more.
Now, we have received two more
notices to attend Town Meetings
anil vote money for two school pro-
jects and other less important un-
dertakings.
The sums to be expended for
these school projects are:
(1) Building present Junior
High School over to house the
Senior High School pupils $1,957,-
000 .
(2) Addition to Park hurst School
$225,000.
And, although it is not being voted
upon at this time there is, as part
of this picture, the remodeling of
the present Senior High School to
house the Junior High pupils. This
figure is now $300,000.
Adding up these three items we
get $2,482,000. This is just for
schools alone, a drain on our tax
burdens for 20 years. During those
years there will he the regular
running expenses of the town and
other necessary projects that may
arise, such as a new fire house on
the West side which the proposed
busy traffic circle in the center
would seem to make mandatory.
If we could retrieve from the
Excess and Deficiency fund the
$190,000 which is proposed to aid
building the overhead railway, that
sum would mean a reduction of
$4.90 per thousand on the tax rate.
This, I think, is worth our serious
consideration. We must not let the
staggering load which confronts us
knock out of balance not only our
personal budgets but the Town’s
finances as well.
In the old days of economy-mind-
ed Town Meetings many of us can
recall John Carr, Dr. Harper
Rlaisdell, and several other care-
ful, conscientious chairmen of
former Finance Committees stand-
ing before us, explaining, caution-
ing us, exhorting us, and warning
us to keep in mind as we voted,
the taxpayers and their hard-earn-
ed savings.
Those men and many others like
them helped to make Winchester
the town it is. Let us work to keep
it that way.

THE REAL ISSUE
Editor of the Star:
The sound and fury raised about
the Grade Crossing Project confuse
what appear to be some very plain
facts. First, nearly two out of
every three Winchester voters in
the last Referendum supported a
plan to raise the tracks. Second,
the plan on which they voted has
now been substantially improved by
the addition (tit no cost to the
town) of a traffic by-pass through
the Skillings Estate. Third, the
total cost of the town has now been
guaranteed by the state not to ex-
ceed $190,000. an amount available
from E & I) and one which does not
necessitate a bond issue.

IT CAH BE DONE!
Editor of the Star:
Neither time nor space permits
more than a few interested citizens,
from scattered sections of the
Town, to speak here for the many
hundreds of residents who are un-
alterably against the proposed plan
of an Elevated Railroad as a solu-
tion to our Crossing und Traffic
problems.
This is the ONLY PLAN FOR
WHICH WINCHESTER RESI-
DENTS HAVE BEEN PERMIT-
TED TO VOTE!
We want an honest presentation
of an alternate plan or plans (there
are several) and the privilege of
expressing a choice before being
shoved headlong into this proposed
eternal, bottomless mess.
We want u modern plan, less
extravagant and wasteful of peo-
ples’ money, less disrupting to the
Town and business interests, less
damaging to homes in many sec-
tions and less destructive to pro-
jects and improvements for which
our taxpayers have expended years
of effort and millions of dollars.
IT CAN BE DONE!

WINCHESTER— A TOWN
IN MASSACHUSETTS.
ITS MOST VEXING PROBLEM
Editor of the Star:
Tliis town is one of the most
beautiful in all New England. Its
setting most desirable in every
way I know. Woods and streams
and lakes and hills. Part of the
valley of Merrimac of ancient pre-
glacial times. The Merrimac Falls
at Lowell powered the mills that
worked the cotton thnt made the
cloth thnt went to Boston, and so
on, all in a railroad train. It was a
fast train — they nil were. Faster
than the canal boat, or ox or ass or
even horse. Dangerous too. No
wonder, running on steel rails.
Fifteen miles and more an hour!
There was a town along the way.
A large town, so extensive even as
to have reached almost to Charles-
town. Woburn, they called it. The
South Woburn crowd got so inde-
pendent and stubborn they even
wanted a separate church to save
walking a mere four or five miles
every Sunday. Got away with it.
Then the place was so crowded
after a while with aristocrats and
such from Boston they became real
"snooty” and wouldn’t associate
with those tanners and shoemakers
up in Woburn and actually wanted
to be a separate town. Didn’t know
what to call it even. Smart,
though! Sort of hinted round and
got three thousand dollars for nam-
ing it "Winchester”. (F. O. Prince’s
friend Colonel Winchester, of
Watertown.) Have some of the
money yet. Ever since 1850!
Trouble was, they hadn’t enough
foresight! Couldn’t get together
and keep the streets off the rail-
road. Boston and Lowell road start-
ed to build in 1831 and South Wo-
burn got in trouble with railroad
crossing almost before it started.
November 21, 1834 the County
Commissioners ordered relocation
of streets to save life. That’s a
hundred and nineteen years ago.
Not done yet.
Found papers on the doorstep
Armistice day showing plan for
final all-time settlement. Trouble
is, none of the selectmen’s meetings
and deliberations have gone far
enough. Half the crowd in a town
meeting "don’t know what it’s all
about.” Same with town meeting
members. Ever hear of one of
them explaining anything to any-
body? Voters need very clear in-
formation on paper right in their
homes so they can ponder it and
discuss it.
These papers are the most in-
formative of their kind I have ever
seen. The explanations are cical-
as to when meetings were held;
I how many votes. November 1945,
I 436 votes. But the trouble is the
explanations are not complete en-
ough, and nine thousand or more
people want to be shown. "Write,
not so that the reader may under-
stand if he will, but that he shall
understand you whether he will or
not.”
Winchester is still a town of
homes, and doubtless will remain
so. I do not believe 30,000 vehicles
should be allowed to cross the
tracks every 24 hours, — nor any
vehicles. All of the studies have
been on the assumption that to raise
the tracks was the only solution.
Why? Fences like the ones be-
tween the tracks would surely stop
vehicles. If not, why not stronger,
with base-wall sufficient to be elim-
ination ?
It is not a matter of "just for to-
day”. Who can tell the increase in
weight and volume of future traffic
to concentrate in this small space!
The shopping centre does not de-
serve it. The through traffic does
not belong in ’the heart of a resi-
dential town.
If some device were placed be-
hind the few buildings which back
toward the tracks on the East side
showing the 19-foot level of the
proposed new tracks, and the train
or freight car height, I am sure
it would be an awful shock to many
people.
Think of the extra volume of
rest-destroying noise by reason of
the greater height of roadbed.
I do not minimize the amount of
faithful thought and effort that has
been given, nor the monetary cost.
I do, however, sincerely feel that
the way out is not to say "Go
ahead” at this time with the track-
raising plan, hut to fence off the
tracks and detour the traffic, with
conviction that there is land-sur-
face enough in or near the right
places for permanent roads of suf-
ficient width.
Why ruin a lot of business
people ?
Why clutter up a lovely district
for two and a half years?
To raise the Winchester railroad
tracks now could be a mistuke be-
yond recovery. Please do not risk
it. First detour the traffic for a
period. Then, — say after a few
months — it there's no other way,
THEN raise the tracks.

OPEN LETTER
TO WINCHESTER MERCHANTS
Editor of the Star:
I respectfully request you to print
the following:
You probably do not know the
undersigned resident of Winches-
ter. There are in fact a good many
of us residents whom you have
never seen, because we avoid you
carefully. It isn’t thut we don’t
like you; we know that there are
many fine shops in Winchester.
But on most of the rare occasions
when we have ventured into the
center, we have been hopelessly
stuck in u traffic jam occasioned by
the passage of one or more trains.
This experience invariably results
in a vow of "never again” and
thenceforth wo buy our cars, elec-
trical appliances, phonograph rec-
ords. clothing, and food in neigh-
boring towns which are not blessed
! with a grade crossing problem. I’m
sure we'd all prefer to trade at
home; if you would like to have us
do so, please help to make Win-
chester a town where busy people
can afford to shop by voting in
favor of tlie grade crossing elim-
ination in the coming referendum.
Sincerely yours,
Ruth D. Terznghi
DISAPPOINTED IN LAST WEEK'S
LETTERS!
Editor of the Star:
In your issue of November G, you
publish several letters in reference
to the Grade Crossing Elimination.
1 was disappointed to see that the
letters were fivc-to-one against the
proposed plan, although 1 did note
that two iff the five letters against
the plan were from the same per-
son.
In view of the decided opinion of
the town, as shown in the various
votes, both by referendum and by
Representative Town Meeting, to
back the well worked out plans of
the Commonwealth of Massachu-
setts, I suspect that a minority in
the Town of Winchester are taking
advantage of your free letters
column in an attempt to obstruct
this progress.
For those of us who have suffer-
ed for years with this antiquated
intersection of the Railroad and
Motor traffic, it is hard to believe
that any group in town is willing
to oppose a project so long needed.
1 fail to see why they cannot ap-
preciate that many hundreds of
hours of engineering research, plus
the combined studies and efforts of
elected town officials over a span of
probably fifty years, have finally
resulted in action to rid the town of
this traffic menace.
I feel fairly sure in the state-
ment that the relief of the hazards
from the transportation bottleneck
of Winchester Center is but a small
part of a great program of com-
bined State and Local officials to
bring Massachusetts communities
up to present day standards of
transportation arteries. It might
be well to note that this program
may have far-reaching effect on
our individual nervous systems. It
seems to me very possible that the
combination of bumper-to-bumper
traffic lines with the attendant gas
fumes, plus the rod, green and am-
ber traffic lights, might alone be
more serious than annoying. How-
ever, when you add to this the main
artery of the Boston and Maine
Railroad, the situation then is both
serious and dangerous.
However, the point of this letter
is that a great majority of us are
truly thankful that we have men,
represented by our Board of Select-
men, both past and present, who,
with the fine cooperation of officials
from both the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and the Boston and
Maine Railroad, have found a solu-
tion to this problem.
I have great confidence that u
majority of our fellow townsmen
will vote Yes on the referendum.
Sincerely yours,
Daniel F. Barnard,

WYMAN SCHOOL
INFORMAL DANCE
Tw.i hundred and fifty Wyman
parents and their friends enjoyed a
delightful evening last Saturday,
when the Wyman Mothers’ Assoei-
rli° n s l M ' nsori ‘d hu informal dance.
1 he high spot of the evening was at
Intermission time when a floor
show produced by Mrs. Bradford
Bentley was announced to the sur-
prised gathering. The orchestra
played the well-known “Dragnet ’
theme and Friday’s capable sub-
• s Ulute, a character known as “Sun
day . appeared. “Sunday’s” close
resemblence to Rev. John Snook, Ji.
was noted by those present as he
proceeded with the case under in-
vestigation. The first witnesses
called proved to he four well-known
dancers, Mrs. Bruce 1. a Rose, Mrs.
( laude (’allaham, Mrs. Herbert
Wood and Mrs. John McClellan who
gaily^ tapped to the tune of “School
Days” while the audience shrieked
their approval. The next witness,
Mrs. Winthrop Knox, presented a
more serious case, ami delighted
the audience with her lovely voice
"’hen she sang: “Gianina Min” and
“No Other Love”. Hilarity ruled
again when Jack Snook became
quiz master and completely baffled
the eight intelligent suspects (in-
cluding Rev. John W. Ellison) pick-
ed from the audience. By the way,
How many outs are in an inning?
After the blushing contestants re-
turned to the crowd, it was an-
nounced that Mrs. Robert Stewart
won the door prize and Mrs. Robert
Ingraham won the lucky number,
Delicious refreshments were en-
joyed and all agreed on a hearty
vote of thanks to Mrs. Thomas
Hill and her committee: Mrs. Brad-
ford Bently, Mrs. Alan Burns, Mrs.
Howard Stockwell, Mrs. John Lath-
rop, Mrs. Thornton Stearns and
Mrs. Raymond Chase.
Thanks go to all Wyman Mothers
whose support of the dance made k
a great financial success. The pro-
ceeds will help the Wyman Mothers’
Association make a gift to the
school and a contribution to the
Winchester Scholarship Fund.

lished the country’s first success-

dance, interest and advice is inspir- 1
ing the members, called on the :
Council to support the officers in
their endeavors to insure success
this season.
Preceding the installation cere- !
monies, the council enjoyed their
own prepared and served lobster
dinner with special commendation
due Deputy Grand Knight Jim
Mawn for arranging delivery of the
lobsters fresh from Maine waters.
Particular commendation went to
Brother Albie McDonald w h o
as head chef spent consider-
able time cooking the dinner, aided
by Past Grand Knight Harry Boyle
and I). G. K. Jim Mawn.
The thanks of the council are due
also to the American Legion for
the loan of their cooking equipment
and to the Elks for the use of their
kitchen facilities.
It was the concensus that if Al-
bie McDonald ever decides to he a
chef permanently, the better Bos-
ton hotels could do no better than
to engage his services. Assists are
due to the following, who served as
“waiters” for the dinner: John

A TRIP TO MAINE
Last week Thursday, Judge Cur-
tis Nash, former State Senator
Harris Richardson, Robert Healey,
James Livingstone and Dr. J.
Churchill Hindes, piled into the
Judge’s Cadillac and headed for
Maine, their destination being
Liniington and the home of Samuel
Perkins, now a resident of Liniing-
ton, but formerly for many years a
resident of Winchester and affec-
tionately known far and wide as
“Cy”.
“Cy’s” health recently hasn’t
been as good as his friends could
wish, hut he was able to receive
and thoroughly enjoy his guests,
their visit coming as a real tonic.
The Winchester voyageurs re-
port that the Perkins hospitality
and humor were in their old time
form and that they had a most
pleasant visit with “Cy” in Liniing-
ton.

A LETTER TO YOU MR. HOME OWNER & TAXPAYER of WINCHESTER
HEAR SIR:
On November lfitli Winchester will hold a Town Meeting
lo vote on tin* question of Rent Control for Winchester. V Ol . as
a HOME OWNER and TAXPAYER OE WINCHESTER should
KNOW WHAT YOUR TOW N MEETING MEMBERS ARE NOT-
ING FOR.
Last spring the Massachusetts Legislature passed a Rent Con-
trol Gill. Let me quote some of the portions of this hill.
Section 2 (Definitions of Housing Accommodations and
Controlled Housing Accommodations) states in item (h):
“Controlled Housing Accommodations,” all housing accommo-
dations except: (Then follow six classifications of exceptions,
of which we, as a whole, are interested mainly in the 6th.
which reads: “On or after JULN THIRTY-FIRST, nineteen
hundred and fifty-three, ALL housing accommodations in
EVERY city and town in this commonwealth EXCEPT the
housing accommodations in those cities and towns which AC-
CEPT the provisions of THIS act IN ACCORDANCE WITH
SECTION TWELVE,” which reads:
“Any city or town in which federal rent controls exist
at the time of tin* passage of this act MAY, between the date of
said passage and JUNE THIRTIETH, NINETEEN HUN-
DRED AND EIFTY-EOl R, by VOTE of the CITY COUN-
CIL, if a CITY, or of a TOWN MEETING CALLED FOR
THE PURPOSE, if a TOWN, accept the provisions of this act.
Such VOTE SHALL INCLUDE a DECLARATION that a
SUBSTANTIAL SHORTAGE of RENTAL housing accom-
modations EXISTS in SUCH CITY or TOWN and that the
CONTROL OF RENTS therein IS NECESSARY in the PUR-
LIC INTEREST.”
Section 4 la) reads: “Upon the ACCEITANCE of THIS
ACT as set forth in section TWELVE, the hoard of selectmen
SHALL appoint a rent hoard of at least five members. A ma-
jority of said hoard shall he representatives of the PI RLIC
INTEREST and the REMAINDER shall he EQUALLY REP-
RESENTATIVES of the LANDLORDS and TENANTS”
(Note: This last sentence defines what is meant hy “public
interest,” i. e., it means neither the landlord nor the tenant, i
A RENT BOARD may EMPLOY and FIX the SAFA-
RI FS of such assistants and clerical aid AS IT DFFMS NEC-
ESSARY. During the CURRENT FISCAL YFAR, rent
hoards are AUTHORIZED to INCUR LIABILITIES in carry-
ing out the provisions of this act and l*AV MEATS therefor
SHALL RE MADE FROM THE TOW N TREASURE FROM
ANY AVAILABLE FUNDS THEREIN, and the SI MS SO
EXPENDED in that period SHALL In* certified hy tin* treas-
urer of the town in January of nineteen hundred and fifly-
four to the hoard of assessors w ho SHALL, W III I < H I II R-
I HER VOTE of the TOWN, RAISE SUCH SI MS in the
TAX LENA OF NINETEEN 111 NDRED and EIFTN-EOl R.
To PROVIDE FI NILS for meeting SI IISEyi ENT EX PEN-
Dili RES authorized hereunder, a town may RAISE SI (!ll
SUMS AS MAN BE NECESSARN UN TAXATION. to Forty
* per cent of the amounts expended hy tin* cities and towns for
tin* purposes of this act with tin* approval of the rent hoards
^ shall hi* reimbursed bv the commonwealth upon upprmal
and CERTIFICATION to the COMPTROLLER In the CO-
ORDINATOR.”
The Rent Board is subject to legal action.
Section 6 lai reads in part: “ANY PERSON who is AC-
GR1EVED hy ANY ACTION, REGULATION or ORDER of
the RENT HOARD may FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST
THE RENT HOARD in the DISTRICT COl RT for the ju-
dicial district within which is located the controlled housing
accommodation affected hy such action, regulation or order,
and thereupon an order of notice SHALL be issued hy such
court and SERVED on the RENT BOARD”
These are a few of the highlights of the hill. Think them over
well. Do you want any police state such as that in your commu-
nity? Now let us analyze the above sections.
I nder Section 12 of the layv, Winchester took no action prior
to July 31. 1953. In accordance with the law all rents became de-
controlled oil August 1st of this year. Adjustments in rents, in
W inehester. if any, have already been made. What purpose can
he served hy controlling rents at present levels? Dissatisfied
tenants have already found other quarters and under the rent con-
trol law a vacated apartment is automatically decontrolled. The
law does not stale that rents may he rolled hack and if 'this were
done, it might lead to endless confusion and even lawsuits. W hy
raise the issue now, after adjustments have already been completed?
lip to July 31, 1953, a centralized government in Washington,
with billions at its command, paid the cost of rent control. Now,
however, under this hill, you, the local taxpayer, must pay the
cost. Read Section 4 quoted above.
The Rent Hoard may employ assistants and clerical aid. They
may well he involved in lawsuits with corresponding legal ex-
penses. They may have to employ operators to enforce their rul-
ings. And the final hill to the community, regardless of the
amount. MUST RE certified hy the treasurer in January. 1954, to
the hoard of assessors, who SHALL, WITHOUT FURTHER VOTE
of the town, RAISE SUCH SUMS in the TAX LEVY of 1954. I
doubt if our taxpayers, with the interest in present high taxi's and
pressing problems in school conditions, municipal salaries and the
like, will care to endorse any blank cheek like* that to keep a con-
trol no longer needed, especially as ALL other controls in the
country have been removed. Do you want your lax rale to go up
in order to form a bureaucracy in Winchester?
This rent hill says that a vote SHALL include a DECLARA-
TION that a SUBSTANTIAL SHORTAGE of RENTAL llol S-
ING ACCOMMODATIONS EXISTS in Winchester and that the
CONTROL OF BENI'S therein IS NFCESSARN in the PI RLIC
l\ I IBIS I . J list what does this mean? It it not just a meaning-
le*s phrase; it means that such a declaration must he based oil irre-
futable facts, a truthful slatemeul that such a condition doe* exist.
No Mir\e\ has yet been made in \\ inehester to find out if this need
exists.
W’liat are the facts? According to the 1950 census there were,
in Winchester, 4160 occupied dwelling units Of these. 3180 were
owner-occupied and only 980 were renter-occupied. These are
the figures of 1950, compiled from a disinterested Government
source, and do not include the additional dwelling UMTS made
available hy the building boom of the last three years. In 1950,
again according to the census, there were 67 vacant rental units,
or a vacancy ratio of 6.8.% A vacancy ratio of 3% lias been ac-
cepted as the limit beyond which rent controls are no longer neces-
sary. In 1940 the population of Winchester, according to the
census of that year, was 15,081, the increase in population from
1940 to 1950 was 428 or 2.85%. The number of dwellings in Win-
chester in 1940 was 3687, the increase in dwellings from 1910 to
1950 was 550 or 14.9%. In 1950 there were more dwelling units
per person than in 1940, and no controls were needed in 1940. And
these figures do NOT include the building boom of the last three
years.
Rut this is not all. The Declaration must also state that CON-
TROL OF RENTS therein is NECESSARY in the PUBLIC IN-
TEREST. Blit what is meant hy PUBLIC INTEREST lias already
been set forth in the hill. PUBLIC INTEREST is not the interest
of either tin* landlord or the tenant, hut the interest of the citizens
of the Town as a whole. How, then, can any such statement he
substantiated, when all advocates of the hill claim it is for the
“poor, defenseless tenants” to protect them against the “avaricious”
landlords. When will the citizens of this Town wake up and be-
come Americans again?
Fellow townsmen, landlords are no different than other busi-
nessmen; all they want is fair play. No landlord is going to raise
his rents to unwarranted levels. If lie did. lie would soon have
empty apartments and he out of business. The same laws govern
renting as govern other businesses. The average landlord takes
pride in his property, pride in his community, and yes, pride
in his tenants, too. And if, occasionally a misguided indivi-
dual among landlords acts unwisely, his own industry and fellow'
citizens can quickly bring him into line. There is no reason for the
class hatred that lias been built up ill this country between land-
lords and tenants. Any landlord lias t lit* privilege of becoming a
tenant and any tenant of becoming a landlord. 'I ll in is supposed
to he a nation of free enterprise.
November 16th Winchester will DECIDE between AMER-
ICANISM and SOCIALISM, whether they will govern themselves
or delegate part of that power to a Bureaucracy. That is the real
question before you. One Hundred Seventy-Eight years ago the
citizens of Winchester were faced with a similar problem. They
voted with their Idood on tin* battlefield of G*xington. Their sacri-
fice made it possible for you to go to a Town Meeting today and
vote. Have your Town Meeting Members go the the Town Meet-
ing November Ifilli and VOTE NO to Rent Control. VOTE NO,
because your liberty is not an inherited privilege, hill something
for which you must certainly fight. VOTE NO. for today oppres-
sion of landlords may tomorrow mean oppression of you.
Sincerely,
(Signed) LESTER C. Cl ST IN,

Four new “Highliner” weekday
trains will start operating <»n the
Boston and Maine Railroad Novem-
ber 16, adding new service between
Boston and Portland, Maine, and
Boston and Concord, New Hamp-
shire.
Leaving Boston at 7:60 a. m. will
he the “Businessman” with an
operating schedule designed for
salesmen and business men who
make frequent trips to Portland,
Me. The new train will feature a
stop at Wakefield, close to Highway
route No. 128 at 8:04 a. m. and will
make stops at Exeter, Dover, N. H.;
North Berwick, Biddeford, and
Portland, Maine, arriving in Port-
land at 9:56 a. m. Matching this
eastbound morning train will he a
mid-afternoon westbound “Busi-
nessman” leaving Portland at 3:30
p. m. muking the same stops as the
eastbound train and arriving at
Wakefield, Mass., at 5:20 p. m. and
Boston at 6:36 p. m.
R. F. Cowan, Passenger Traffic
Manager of the Road is stressing
the importance of the new train
to the businessmen said, “This new
deluxe air-conditioned train will
give a convenient schedule adapted
to the salesmen and will allow them
to relax or do their paper work en-
route. It will also free them from
tiresome driving plus the added ex-
pense of highway tolls and give
them a dependable arrival time re-
gardless of weather conditions.”
Cowan also pointed to the early
arrival time at Wakefield and Bos-
ton on the return trip.
The new service for Concord,
N. H., from Boston will consist of
a deluxe “Highliner” train leaving
Boston at 6:30 p. m. with stops at
Nashua, 7:13 p. m. and Manchester,
7:31 p. m. arriving at Concord at
7 :55 p. m.
A new evening “Highliner” train
leaving Concord, N. H., for Boston
at 9:00 p. m. will make stops at
Manchester, 9:26 p. m. and Nashua,
9:45 p. m. arriving in Boston at
10:30 p. m.
The addition of these trains
makes a total of 38 deluxe High-
liner trains now in operation on the
Boston and Maine Railroad.
The new deluxe stainless steel
trains are self-propelled and com-
pletely air conditioned. Some of
the interior features include large
picture windows, highback foam
rubber upholstered seats, fluores-
cent overhead lights, and colorful
rubber tiled floors.
Parents eclipsed all previous
records for attendance as approxi-
mately seven hundred and fifty en-
thusiastic mothers and fathers at-
tended Open House at Winchester
High School last Thursday.
Reviewing the attendance re-
ports collected during the third
period of the simulated school day,
Principal Wade L. Grindle com-
mented, “We certainly had a record-
breaking attendance. Not only
were there more parents present,
hut they gave every appearance of
being pleased with what they saw
and heard. Science laboratories,
especially, were unable to seat all
of the guests, and to mnke the
evening complete, the refreshments
provided by the ladies of the
Parent-Faculty Association were
delicious and abundant.”
Home room teachers and room
mothers greeted the early arrivals,
who were given copies of their
boy’s and girl’s Thursday schedule
and, after a few explanatory words,
were on their own to follow the
program as it took them from loom
to room and building to building.
Teachers dropping into the cafe-
teria for an after-school snack
were unanimous in their praise of
the spirit that prompted so many
to attend and, attending, to he so
complimentary.
Of particular interest was the
sample room, Room 13, in which
parents could readily observe the
effect of adequate light, sound re-
sistant ceilings, movable furniture,
extensive bookcases and bulletin
hoards, and a floor surface that
permits more thorough cleaning.
Another pleasant feature of Open
House was the larger number of
parents who followed the programs
of their hoys and girls enrolled in
the commercial course or other ter-
minal education subjects like prac-
t i c a 1 mathematics, aeronautical
science, non college English, geo-
graphy, and many others.
Representatives of the Parent-
Faculty Association were pleased
with the large total of family dues
collected which helps to assure a
continuation of the parent-inspired
aid to the school and to its grad-
uates.
The Officers and Steering Com-
mittee of the Lincoln School Dads’
Club met at the home of Vincent
Carroll on Thursday. November
5th, to discuss and make final ar-
rangements for the coming Infor-
mal Dance to he held in the School

ber 21st.
The Entertainment Committee

During the meeting, Robert
Sands, President of the Club, pre-
sented the committee with “Thank
you” letters received from each
room expressing their thanks for
the Hallowe’en Pumpkins and
Trick or Treat Bags.
So remember Dads and Mothers,
set aside Saturday evening, No-
vember 21, and come to the first
dance of the season.
A good time is assured for all.

If you want the most for your money,
Pontiac is the car to buy.
You can prove it in one ride.
The smooth, whisper-soft flow of power...
the quick response and flexibility of the
Pontiac engine is a heart-warming expe-
rience— truly great performance delivered
with a thriftiness and reliability that
means dollars in your pocket.
This fine car action is combined with fine
car roominess, comfort and luxury. It is
a rich feeling just to sit in a Pontiac.
Now check the price. It is only a few
dollars away from the lowest! The differ-
ence is even smaller when you consider
Pontiac’s resale value. An independent
research study reveals that Pontiac re-
tains much more of its new car value than
any other car in its price class.
Come in while your car is at its peak

THE FORTNIGHTLY
The regular meeting of The
Fortnightly was held Monday,
November ninth, in the First Bap-
tist Church. The President, Mrs.
Sidney A. Burr, presided over a
short business meeting during
which Mrs. Frederick W . Cole \\as
presented an award from the Fed-
eration for her outstanding work
on art the past two seasons, when
she was Chairman of the Art Com-
mittee of this Club.
Miss A dele Emery asked for vol-
unteers to come to the home of Mrs.
John H. Gilbody Tuesday, Novem-
ber 17th from 1 to 5 p. m. to help
pack the Club’s Christmas bags for
disabled veterans.
The speaker for the afternoon,
Miss Mary P. Fitzpatrick, whose
subject was, “Work of Women of
the State Police,” presented an in-
teresting and instructive account
of some of her experiences as a
Special Officer stationed nt the
Framingham State Barracks.
The policewoman’s work, mem-
bers were told, deals with women,
juvenile delinquents, and family
difficulties. The department is al-
ways working on preventative
measures and Miss Kirkpatrick
urged all parents to he very care-
ful to set a good example, as child-
ren try to imitate them. Also, to
report immediately anyone or any-
thing that they suspect of being
immoral or dangerous to society in
any way.
I luring an intermission, at a
table beautifully decorated with a
fruit centerpiece and candles, tea
was served with Mrs. Arthur
Haines and Mrs. William B. Wood
pouring, assisted by the following
hostesses for the day: Mrs. William
CJ. Dailey, Mrs. Gustav XV. John-
son and Mrs. Harold E. Bergquist.

or and member of the National
American Glass Club, will speak on
Art Glass. In the afternoon there
will he a lecture on Japanese Art
at the Museum of Fine Arts, Bos-
ton at 2:30 p. m.
Dr. Frederick Wulsin, speaking
to a large group of College Club
Members nnd guests last Monday
evening, made ancient Babylon
i nme vividly alive. Tracing the
development of Babylon from its
beginnings ns one of the earliest
experiments in city living. Dr. Wul-
sin pictured finally an empire of
vast scope and influence.
Because of its geographical
location, and s&crcity of native raw
materials, large-scale commerce be-
came a necessity to the Babylonian
empire. This in turn required
strong government organization
and unified large areas. Businesses
throve; hanking firms were busy
and well-organized. There was
speculation and development in real
estate no different than that of a
fancy Florida boom!
The small family unit prevailed
as it does today, with neighborhood
squabbles just as typical; women
were active not only in home-man-
agement but in business affairs.
Education was wide-spread. Legal
thought and practice was mature,
as evidenced by numerous wills and
deeds recorded in well-preserved
clay tablets. In short, Dr. Wulsin
brought his audience to realize that
life in Babylon in 1850 B. C. did not
differ essentially from life in 1950
A. D. Technical advances and gadg-
ets have altered the exterior pict-
ure; the fundamentals change little
whether in “Babylon or Boston”.
Before presenting the speaker,
Mrs. James B. Willing, called on
Mrs. Frank B. Kelley, Jr., to read
the minutes of the last meeting.
Mrs. Paul B. Leverette followed
her financial report with the re-
quest that dues be paid as promptly
as possible. Mrs. Pitirim Sorokin
described the Club’s very active and
successful Day Time Study Groups.
Included were the History Group
and the three enthusiastic French
Conversation Groups. The Art
Group, led by Mrs. George B.
Heath, will have its first meeting
on Nov. 20th at 2 p. m. at the
Museum of Fine Arts. The Thrifty
Time-saving Tactics Group will be-
gin in January.
Mr. Robert Lowry outlined plans
for the Evening Study Groups,
which will open with a supper meet-
ing on Monday evening, January
11th.
This year thorp will be Groups
studying Music, the American
Novel, Play Reading, Home Owner-
ship, and a new Group called “Let’s
Sing’’. No musical talent is requir-
ed for the latter! Watch your mail
and the Star for further inform-
ation about all of these lively

ANIMAL RESCUE LEAGUE FAIR
For the 51st consecutive year the
Animal Rescue League of Boston is
presenting its Annual Fair. This
year’s version of the fair is being
held at the ballroom of the Sher-
aton Plaza Hotel on Thursday and
Friday, November 19 and 20.
The first fair was held in 1903,
five years after the founding of the
Animal Rescue League of Boston
in 1899. During the years since
then this independent charitable
organization has labored for the re-
lief of suffering of all animals. This
tradition of service, service to
animals who are in man’s service,
has never been deviated from.
During the years, too, the Annual
Fair has been a major fund-raising
effort of the Animal Rescue League
of Boston to enable the League to
raise the wherewithal to continue
this service. At the present time
ambulances visit not only the area
around Winchester, but all the
other communities which are in-
cluded in the Boston telephone dir-
ectory.
No charge is made for this ser-
vice; it is free for the asking. How-
ever, the price of this service is
constantly increasing, yet the ser-
vice has never been decreased. If
it were not for the generosity of
citizens who wish to see suffering
of any kind alleviated, the service
would necessarily have to he dis-
continued.
These animals can’t speak for
themselves nor ask for aid, but we,
the human inhabitants of this world
can give it without asking. In the
case of the Annual Fair of the
Animal Rescue League of Boston
all proceeds are used in the protec-
tion, rescue and treatment of ani-
mals. Why not go to the Fair?
You’ll he doing them a service.
Mr. Edward J. McDevitt, Jr., of
34 Everett avenue is one of eight
new members recently added to

Hallowe’en was the theme of a
gay and colorful assembly program
presented by the pupils of the third
grade under the direction of Miss
Lillian Salicc on October 28. With
all of the children dressed in Hal-
lowe’en costumes the spirits of
spooks and goblins must have felt
quite at home in the auditorium
that day.
The program began with a group
of poems appropriate to the theme.
“October’s Party” found the fol-
lowing participating:
Diane Kelly
Dona Colclough
Paul Flaherty
Neal Baker
Margot Hall
Susan Bryant
Bruce Carpenter
JefT Grant
John Brotherston
Mimi Barnes, Gary Poor, Mark
Masterton and Sandra Brown next
recited “It’s Hallowe’en.” Jonathan
Sibley, James Menucci, and Jell*
Peckham offered “My Jack O’Lan-
tern” as their contribution; and
the last of the group was “Octo-
ber,” recited by
Linda Nelson
Ronnie Keane
Pamela Raymond
Marie Scalesse
Floyd Lever
Lee Hakanson
Richard Clarke
Following the poems, the class
sang two Hallowe’en songs, and
then came the climax to the pro-
gram, an amusing play entitled,
“Problem Goblin.” Members of the
cast included
Ruth Bcckley
Jane Farnuni
Stephen Wardwell
Kearin Richmond
Janet Millican
Russell Hart
Jim Eliassen
Mary Lou Haley
Albert Campagna
Robert Sulmonetti
The setting, an eerie spot in the
woods near the goblins’ cave, added
much to the atmosphere.
The final number on the program
was the dance, ‘I’m Not Afraid of
Anything.” The assistance of Mrs.
Dana Kelly, who played the piano
accompaniment, was much appre-
ciated, ns was the help of sixth-
grader John Ilosmer, who acted as
stage manuger.

FIRE AT HOME FOR AGED
What might have been a serious
fire at the Home for Aged People
was discovered shortly after 6 o'-
clock Monday evening. Box 241 be-
ing sounded at 6:07 p. m.
Engines I and II with the Ladder
Truck and a crew under Captain
Frank Amico made the short trip
from the Central Station to the
Home just as six o’clock commuters
and traffic were crowding the cen-
ter.
At the home they found the fire
had originated in a carrying beam
under the first floor beneath a first
floor bath-room near the rear din-
ing room. It was still for the most
part in the smouldering stage, but
there had been sufficient lire to
burn a good section of the beam and
eat up around the pipes into the
bath-room.
The firefighters confined the fire
to the area in which it started,
using a booster line and smoke
ejectors to rid the home of smoke
All the men agreed the lire had
good possibilities and had it oc-
curred later at night might have
reached serious proportions.
It was 7:40 before the crews fin-
ished mopping and cleaning up and
were satisfied there was no lire left
in the partition affected. No es-
timate of the damage done was
made public.

With world attention focused on
Korea and Indochina, the National
Geographic Society has issued a
new map of the strategic lands
along a 2,200-mile sweep of the
Far East.
“China Coast and Korea” is the
title of the 10-color, 26-by-41 , /2
inch map. It covers an area from
Russia’s port of Vladivostok south
to Laos State in Indochina, and
from northern Japan to Manila. It
shows the Sea of Japan, the Yellow
Sea, the East and South China
Seas, and far reaches of the Pacific.
Battle Landmarks
Splitting Korea, a red line indi-
cates the 2 V& -mile- wide buffer zone
established by the truce signed last
July 27 at Panmunjon. Heart-
break Ridge, Old Baldy, Bunker
Hill, the Punch Bowl, Sniper Ridge
and other scenes of hitter and cost-
ly fighting along this line are pin-
pointed.
To the south, the map charts the
three main offshore garrisons that
serve as springboards for Chinese
Nationalist guerrila raids on Red-
held China. They are the Tachen
Archipelago, Matsu Island, and the
neighboring islands of Quemoy and
Little Quemoy — all in the For-
mosa Strait. Nationalist forces
additionally hold some 30 other
islands off the China coast, plus
Formosa and its offshore lands.
The Viet Nam towns of Hanoi
and Dien Bien Phu in Indochina’s
northernmost corner are focal
points of fighting between Commu-
nist forces and French troops.
Here, in the rice rich Rouge River
Delta, as many as 1,400 persons
crowd the square mile.
Slant Technique
The new map marks the first
time the Society’s cartographers
have used an oblique Mercator pro-
jection, computed for the great cir-
cle running through the center.
Because the maximum map size
is fixed by the size of the presses,
cartographers put China on an
angle to increase the scale to 55
miles to the inch. If China had
been shown the usual way, with
north at the top, the scale would
have been considerably smaller —
about 100 miles to the inch.
A novel relief method was also
employed. Mountains are shaded
in blue and yellow — blue on the
shadow side and yellow on the
light, assuming the light comes
from the northwest. In the Far
East, where mountains dominate
the lund, the color scheme aids
visuul interpretation.
In water areas, six shades of blue
are used to indicate depth contours
, of the ocean floor — the lightest
for the shallow continental shelf,
j darker shades for the deeper
waters.
The new map carries 6,234 place
! names. Multiplicity of place-name
i spellings provided a major problem
for National Geographic carto-
• graphers. Tientsin, for example,
may be spelled three different
ways; for Penki, in Manchuria,
there are a dozen other spellings.
The Society's 2,150,000 members
have sent the map as a supplement
to the October issue of the National
Geographic Magazine.
The Soo Canals at Saulte Ste.

beautifully decorated floats, spe-
cially designed for the celebration
of Santa’s arrival in Waltham. One
of the floats will represent the tra-

METHODIST LOYALTY SUNDAY
Every Methodist family is strong-
ly urged to make every efTort to
attend this coming Sunday morning
service which will he designated in
the Protestant churches of the
community as Loyalty Sunday.
Church membership in the United
States has almost reached the one
hundred million mark, which is a
tremendous increase in numbers
and more important, a sharp in-
crease in the percentage of the
population.
With all the activities of the
church program, the Crawford
Memorial Methodist Church is plac-
ing a stress on the public worship
of God. Consequently, church at-
tendance this Fall has increased
and people are becoming more
aware of this as a vital part of one’s
life.
The pastor, Rev. John Snook, Jr.,
is speaking on the subject, “Your
Giving Proves Your Living.” Mem-
bers and friends are again invited
to attend church as a public wit-
ness to one’s belief and faith in the
church, the Greatest Hope For The
World.

WINCHESTER HISTORICAL
SPEAKER GAVE FINE TALK
“China of the White House”, a
dramatic and enlightening talk on
t lie story of the table china selected
by various Presidents and their
ladies — with many “behind the
scenes” stories of those presidents
and their times — provided the
opening meeting of the Winchester
Historical Society, Saturday after-
noon, November 7, with a wealth of
historical information. The speak-
er was Mrs. Dorothy Waterhouse
of Boston, who had acquired slides
of the White House china, from Mr.
Washington to Mr. Truman, by
diligent research in every part of
the country, from museums and
desccndents. Mrs. Waterhouse her-
self owns several fine pieces of
White House china, which she ex-
hibited last Saturday. Miss Clara
R. Russell presided. In spite of the
heavy rains and wind, the meeting
was well attended by members and
guests.
Mrs. Waterhouse’s first slide was
of two rare Canton salts, owned by
George Washington, followed by the
renowned Sunburst Pattern china
(cup and saucer) of Martha Wash-
ington. From Abigail Adams
regime, she showed the exquisite
corn-flower pattern French china;
from the beauty Dolly Madison, she
showed the Madison china pattern,
abetted by several delightful stories
of this social leader and charmer of
her day; James Monroe’s famed
china with the eagle design, Jack-
son's heavy gold-rimmed china, and
Van Buren’s most elegant French
china all were shown to the au-
dience. Lincoln’s china which he
chose for the White House was fas-
cinating, and tinged with sadness,
for on his china there was the proud
American eagle, with a cloud over
its head, a sun breaking through
in the distance, and the eagle faced
the arrows in its claw, a symbol of
war.
It was Woodrpw Wilson who first
used American china in the White
House, Lenox china, a fine porcelain
ordered by succeeding Presidents;
and F. D. R. was the first President
to use his family coat of arms plus
the national emblem on his china.
To Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, Mrs.
Waterhouse gave full credit for a
superb and unpublicized task, that
of assembling odd pieces of White
House china, and cataloging them
for posterity.

“Charlie” Koch, popular mana-
ger of the Winchester Sports Shop,
who was injured in an automobile
accident last week Thursday at the
junction of the Lynn Fellsway with
the Fellsway in Medford, returned
to his home last Friday evening
after an overnight stay at the Mal-
den Hospital. “Charlie” is under
the care of his fellow townsman,
Dr. Clark Staples, who assures him
there will be no permanent ill ef-
fects from the accident.
“Charlie” was driving his new
beachwagon on the Medford Fells-
way toward Malden, and was mak-
ing a left turn from the Fellsway
into Charles street when his ma-
chine was struck on the left side
between the fender and door by a
New Hampshire registered car
driven by a woman, crossing the
trolley intersection.
In an attempt to avoid the acci-
dent ‘Charlie” swung his car sharp-
ly to the right, and this and the
impact twisted his head so far to
the right that his neck locked und
he could not raise his head from his
right shoulder, lie also sustained
painful back injuries and partial
paralysis. The driver of the other
car was not hurt.
“Charlie” was taken from his
machine by Metropolitan police
and taken in their ambulance to the
Malden Hospital, where he was
treated by Dr. Staples. He still can-
not move his head to one side and
is bothered by his back. He hopes,
however, to be out and about soon.

OLD RIVALS MEET
WINCHESTER ANI) WOBURN
AWAIT THANKSGIVING
WHISTLE
Continuing one of the oldest
schoolboy gridiron rivalries here-
abouts, a rivalry that goes hack to
1891, Winchester and Woburn High
Schools will square away for their
47th annual football game Thanks-
giving Day morning on Manchester
Field with the kickoff at 10:30.
Winchester is rightly the favor-
ite this year, despite the fact that
Woburn is much improved over
last season. The Tanners have won
tin •ce, lost three and tied one, while
last year the Orange failed to win
a single game.
Woburn’s wins this year have all
been convincing, 21-0 over Meth-
uen, 20-0 over Reading and 27-6
over Winthrop. Last Saturday the
Tanners should have won their
scoreless tie with Marblehead.
For all this, Winchester’s record
is the better one, the Indians hav-
ing won six, lost one and tied one.
Concord upset the Indians, 13-0 in
the season’s opener, a game the
locals would dearly love to play
aguin, and their 13-13 tie with
Watertown was one of Winchester’s
better performances of the season.
Like Woburn against Marblehead,
Winchester should have won that
one, only its inexperience prevent-
ing a victory.
Undoubtedly Winchester’s best
performance of the season was last
Saturday against Wakefield, un
beaten Class B leader when the In-
dians took them on. That 28-13
win over a team with supposedly
the “strongest line” in the Greater
Boston schoolboy ranks set up the
locals as one of the best Class B
teams, and also from the rather
shaky citadel of comparative
scores makes the Indians look like
winners against Woburn.
The Tanners dropped an early
season game to Wakefield, 14-0, and
against the the other three teams
met in common, Winchester would
also seem to have the edge, at least
MISS ETHEL M. ROBERTS
Miss Ethel M. Roberts of 5 Lewis
road, former executive secretary of
the Publicity Department of the
Episcopal Diocese of Massachu-
setts, died suddenly at her home
Saturday, November 14.
Miss Roberts was the daughter
of James, and Martilla (Richie)
SHARON - STODDARD
There is Winchester interest in
the marriage which took place at
the Church of the Good Shepherd
in Reading Saturday evening, No-
vember 14, when Miss Janet Paul-
ine Stoddard, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Homer B. Stoddard of 46 Up-
land road, Melrose, became the
bride of Robert Kenneth Sharon,
son of Mrs. Alfred Denley of 28
Maxwell road. Rev. Herbert A.
Jerauld read the 8 o’clock double-
ring service in an attractive set-
ting of white chrysanthemums and
candles. Richard Bond, organist,
played the bridal music.
Miss Stoddard was given in mar-
riage by her father und was at-
tended by her sister, Miss Carolyn
Stoddard of Melrose.
The bride wore a gown of rose
yellow satin fashioned with a train
and a white nylon and lace over-
skirt, an illusion neckline and short
sleeves. With it she wore matching
illusion mitts and a fingertip-length
veil caught to a cap of white lace
and seed pearls. Instead of a bou-
quet she carried a prayer book
with a yellow-throated white or-
chid and streamers of swansonia.
The honor maid wore an ankle-
length dress of bronze taffeta with
a net overskirt and halter neckline.
She carried a cascade bouquet of
bronze chrysanthemums and wore
the same flowers in her hair.

watercolors.
Miss Roberts became associated
with the work of the Episcopal
Church in 1920, and worked with
the Diocesan Council for 32 years
until her retirement last January.
Her work involved contributions
to the Diocesan magazine, The
Church Militant; insertion of
diocesan news in The Churchman
and The Living Church, distribu-
tion of pamphlets and operation of
the Speakers Bureau which wel-
comed missionaries from all over
the world.
She established the Speakers
Bureau, which flourished under her
guidance, and she was active both
in the Women’s Auxiliary and the
Church Service League.
A wide reader. Miss Roberts had
a profound knowledge of English
literature and a fine command of
the English language. She was a
gifted writer, both of prose and j
verse.
Miss Roberts had lived in Win-
chester for the past 20 years, com-
ing here from Boston. She was the
last of her family.
Funeral services were held Wed-
nesday afternoon in Story Chapel
of Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cam-

sisted by the Rev. John W. Ellison,
rector of the Church of the Epi-
plewood, N. J.; and John Stevenson

A reception was held after the
marriage at the Meadowbrook Golf

adversely. | from which he failed to rally.
So in the matter of comparative
scores, condition and field Winches-
ter has the advantage. This leaves
the all important spirit, and in this
connection Woburn through the
years has outfought Winchester.
Come Thanksgiving, the hungry
Tanners, with two losses and a tie
in their last three games against
the Indians will be wanting that
win badly. They could get it!
Stranger things have happened!
Winchester, as it played against
Wakefield would seem to be beyond
Woburn’s reach to upset, hut
whether the Indians can get as far
along the warpath as they were
last Saturday is a question.
We still like ’em and everything
considered they should win. We’d
feel more secure with Jimmy Cu-
sack in the middle of that line to
guard against those fullback traps
the Orange has always used so
effectively against Winchester, and
of course our fingers are crossed
while we wait for the scholastic
grades of the players.

Mr. Cushing was the son of Otis,
and I.avina (Ryder) Cushing. He
was born January 27, 1861, in
North Yarmouth, Me., and before
coming to Winchester lived for
some years in Wakefield.
He came to Winchester in June
of 1919, and lived at 8 Nelson street
until he entered the Home April
30, 1930. He was employed at
Beggs & Cobb until he retired dur-
ing 1929.
Mr. Cushing entered the Home

Cushing, who died in June of 1934.
Both were valued members of the
family, and Mr. Cushing, while his
health permitted, was active about
the Home and grounds, caring for
t lu* lawns and gardens. He took a
great pride in whatever he at-
tempted and was a perfectionist in
his work.
Mr. Cushing was a familiar
figure about the center and liked j
by all who knew him, his cheery
smile and greeting being known to
citizens in all walks of life. He
was a member of the First Congre-
gational Church. He leaves no
immediate family.
Funeral services were held at the
Kimball Chapel Tuesday afternoon

It took 147 town meeting mem-
bers 45 minutes at a special ses-
sion Monday evening to vote
unanimously to appropriate $1»-
886,256.00 to remodel and construct
additions to the present junior high
school building which is now to be-
come a four year senior high school.
Those in the balconies and rear
of the ball burst into applause as
they saw all the town meeting
members on their feet when the
vote was put. No one spoke in
opposition to the recommendations
of the Building Committee for Ad-
ditional facilities for the Senior
and Junior High schools, which
were virtually accepted last March,
when their plans for the secondary
schools were explained in detail.
Thursday’s meeting was called :<>
appropriate the funds necessary to
do the actual work involved in the
change-over.
Mr. Speers, chairman of the
Building Committee, did a masterly
job of explaining the ramifications
of the plan’s financing, so as to take
advantage of State aid. He ex-
plained that the cost of the work
greater than estimated, but stated
that in any construction, from a
small house up, the cost of actual
construction is always greater,
sometimes by as much as 100 per-
cent.
In case of the school addition Mr.
Speers felt the increase very rea-
sonable and he also felt that with
ten bidders, the low bidder, low by

Mr. Speers explained that the
cost of the school construction over
the 20 year period covered by the
bond issue will add an estimated top
$2.78 to the tax rate the first year
and will taper off to $1.83 in 1974,
though he expects the actual in-
crease in tax rate will be less.
The plans for the remodelling
and new construction have not been
materially changed from those pre-
sented to the last March meeting.
There have been some changes, but
they are in all cases minor and
more in the nature of refinements
or improvements suggested as the
actual working specifications were
produced. The speaker was very
positive on this point and also on
the remodelling of the Senior High
School to house a two year junior
high school. He scored the reports
that the senior high work is to be
abandoned to force the construction
of an entirely new building and ex-
plained the delay in the senior high
work is for the purpose of having
a place to put pupils while the
work at the junior high building is
in progress.
In connection with the remodel-
ling of the present high school Mr.
Speers said that Architect Jerome
Bailey Foster has been instructed
to have his plans and specifications
ready by February 1, although the
job can not be done prior to 1955.
Estimated cost of this work is
$300,000, and it is believed that the
actual cost will be very close to this
figure. Unfortunately the job is
going to take much longer to do
than the original estimate of a
single summer.

Tomorrow, November 21st, is
"Fair Day” in Winchester. All
day and evening, starting at 10
a. m. the members of the First Bap-
tist Church expect to welcome
hundreds of happy gift and bargain
hunters from Winchester and for
miles around, to their gala, color-
ful Harvest Fair.
"This year’s fair,” according to
Mrs. Elizabeth McLeod, Fair Chair-
man, will he bigger and better than
ever, with just about everything
anyone could desire in the way of
gifts, food, toys, novelties, white
elephants, rare and unusual ar-
ticles, one-of-a-kind items, and just
plain ‘bargains’. Visitors will en-
joy wandering from booth to booth,
looking over the intercsing dis-
plays. They won’t want to miss
the children’s booth or the exciting
gift exhibit. Then there’s the food
booth, the apron table, the doll,
candy, jewelry, scout and plant dis-
plays. And of course, no fair would
bo complete without a grab bag and
a soda-pop stand. ‘Up-The-Attic-
Stairs’, one of last year’s most
popular attractions, will be repeat-
ed again this year with an even
wider selection of old and unusual
articles for sale. And probably the
biggest attraction of all will be the
General Store ,with a really won-
derful stock of worthwhile ‘buys’.
Last but not least, there’s the Par-
cel Post Booth featuring articles
mailed to the fair from all over the
nation and even from foreign lands,
still in their original, unbroken
mailing wrappings. It’s also a
wonderful opportunity to do some
pleasant and convenient Christmas
shopping and collect some gifts
that are really distinctive and ap- 1
pealing,” concluded Mrs. McLeod.;
Fair visitors are also invited to
enjoy the delicious luncheon which
will he served between 12 and 1
o’clock, at the reasonable charge of |
75 cents. Another highlight of the
Fair will be the New England Sup-
per, 5:30 to 7:00 p. ni. Many reser-
vations have already been made,
but tickets can still be obtained by
calling or visiting G. A. Josephson’s
real estate olfice, next to Star office,
Winchester 6-2426. Tickets, Adults
99 cents, children twelve years of
age or under, 50 cents. Supper
tickets may also be purchased at
the door if desired.
No doubt about it, First Baptist’s
Harvest Fair promises to be a real
‘‘hum-dinger”. Don’t forget, it’s

that in the interest of long range

Mr. Bonnell questioned the child

fact that the planning expert which

the story of how the defense of this
principle threatened one man with
the loss of his job and his wife.
The play, directed by John R.
Woodruff, built up momentum
steadily until the very impressive
third act climax and the main char-
acters became a well-knit unit
showing each other off to good ad-
vantage.
As Tommy Turner, the young
English professor who finds that
standing firm for his beliefs is more
important than his security, Brad-
ford Darling gave a sensitive per-
formance which brought out the
basic seriousness of the man, his
rueful and intelligent humor and
his bewilderment at that uncertain
quantity, his wife. Bettina Har-
rison was very much at ease in the
role of pretty, practical Ellen Tur-
ner, who tended to patronize her
absent-minded husband and then
woke up to find that he was a hero
in his own quiet hut articulate way.
Completing this triangle was Joe
Ferguson, the former football star,
who thought he was returning to
his alma mater for a carefree week
end and suddenly found himself en-
tangled in the Turners’ marital
affairs. Thornton Stearns made
Joe a very appealing figure, obtuse
at times, gregarious and unwary
as a puppy dog, hut always thor-
oughly likable. As Ed Keller, the
college trustee who thought he
could dictate his own version of
“Americanism”, Harry Wood gave
a funny hut sometimes frightening
picture of a man insulated against
all new ideas.
The younger generation in the
play did not lack for emotional
crises. William Symmes inter-
preted with a fine troubled earnest-
ness the role of Michael Barnes, the
young student whose fiery editorial
started the trouble at Midwestern.
Diana Mansfield added just the
right touch of teenage superiority
as Ellen’s kid sister, and Robert
McMaster played the current foot-
ball hero in relaxed fashion.
Robert Eddy was convincing as
an older faculty member hesitat-
ing between caution and courage.
As Cleota, the Turners’ maid, Dor-
othy Abbott was on hand to add to
the gaiety and block the communi-
cations system. Others very much
involved with life at Midwestern
were Muriel Dantona as Mrs.
Damon, Charlotte Burr as Myrtle
Keller, and Madeleine Blair as
Nutsy Miller.
The comfortable living room with
its champagne walls and long win-
dows was a bright and appropriate
setting.
NEEDLEWORK GUILD
THANKS ITS MEMBERS
The Winchester Branch of the
Needlework Guild of America
wishes to thank its members sin-
cerely for giving so generously to
its “Ingathering” November 12th
at the Second Congregational
Church. It takes time to make this
personal gift hut it is an oppor-
tunity, too, and a blessing to the
giver and receiver. To give one’s
best to those who need it most, is
a satisfaction.
Spread on tables around the hall
were the 723 articles in their fresh
newness. They ran the gamut from
I blankets to mittens; from hoys’
sweaters to babies’ sacks and from
j dungarees to diapers,
i It seemed most suitable to have
! the annual meeting of the Branch
surrounded with the gfts which are
| its purpose. The hall was filled to
capacity with the largest attend-
ance in many years. More than se-
venty enthusiastic members con-
; ducted their business with interest.
Mrs. Ellsworth Snow, nominating
committee chairman, reported. Mrs.
Wayne Thompson retired from the
presidency and Mrs. Gilbert Tap-
icv became the new president.
It was especially interesting to
meet the Reverend John Skeirik,
the new minister of the Second
Congregational Church and to hear
him speak with real conviction on
the Holiness of Charity.
There, to receive and later to
distribute the gifts from the “In-
gathering” to those who need them,
were Mrs. Doris Wiklund, It. N.,
and Miss Phyllis Tucker, R. N.,
from the Winchester District Nurs-
ing Association; Mrs. Mary J. Lyng
and Miss Nellie Sullivan of the
Winchester Welfare Department;
Mrs. Alice V. Murray, It. N., the
Public Health nurse; Miss Natha-
lie Jewett of the Red Cross; Mrs.
Maude WollofT for the Home for
the Aged; and the representatives
of the various churches.
A delicious tea was served by
Mrs. Rony Snyder and her commit-
tee.
The officers for 1953-54 are:
President — Mrs. Gilbert Tapley
Vice President — Mrs. Rony Sny-
der
Secretary — Mrs. Ben It. Schnei-

BELLINO STAR OF WEEK
1 Joe Bellino, outstandinK sopho-
more left halfback on the Winches-
ter High School football team, was
selected by the Boston Post as its
Schoolboy Star of the Week after
his great performance against
Wakefield last Saturday afternoon.
“Joe” scored two touchdowns
against Wakefield, one of them on
a sparkling 29-yard run that in-
cluded some of the finest faking
local fans have seen all season. The
sturdy sophomore, younger brother
of Sammy and Moose Bellino, for-
mer high school hackfield stars, has
been a consistent scorer all season,
having racked up 61 points in eight
games.
lie is undoubtedly one of the host
sophomore prospects Winchester
has had in years and at L» is the
youngest hoy ever to he picked as
Star of the Week by tl*c Post.

JIM CUSACK BREAKS LEG
IN GREAT 28-13 VICTOR*
Completely undisturbed by con-
stant reports of Wakefield’s invin-
cibility, of Wakefield’s mighty line,
of Wakefield’s elusive hall carriers,
and of Wakefield’s supreme confi-
dence, Uenny Knowfton'a team,
moving with the power and preci-
sion of a well-oiled machine, crush-
ed Wakefield with a display of pow-
er and determination against which
the boys from Wakefield were all
hut helpless. The final score of 28
j to 13 was not a true index of the
j relative ability of the two teams.
Even the highly partisan crowd of
hopeful Wakefield fans were will-
| ing to concede that their favorites
| were lucky to score at all.
This was no victory of individual
stars, although Joe Bellino. Mike
, Murphy, Boh Haggerty, and Pave
; Pratt played stellar roles in touch-
| down drives. This was a team vic-
tory from start to finish.
Facing what was reputed to he
the best line and the two best de-
fensive ends in high school ranks
hereabouts, Dave Pratt, Winches-
ter quarterback, calmly called lor
cross bucks through the tackle and
guard positions and for pitchouts
to Bellino and Murphy for a grand
total of 228 yards advance from
scrimmage.
On each of sixteen ground plays
through Wakefield’s line or around
the ends, Bellino, Murphy, Hagger-
ty, and Pratt racked up five yards
or better, the longest drive being
Bob Haggerty’s flash through left
tackle on a cross buck for 45 yards.
In contrast, Wakefield’s highly
scouted scatbacks were able to pick
Up a total of only 78 yards.
As far as Winchester fans are
concerned, they can throw away
all Class B ratings. Winchester will
not be awarded the Class B. cham-
pionship this fall, but those who
saw the game last Saturday at
Wakefield, whether they were
Wakefield or Winchester support-
ers, came away aware of the fact
that they had seen the best foot-
ball team in Class B on that day.
Perhaps one little incident among
many might be cited as a clue to
the character of Winchester’s play
from the beginning of the game.
On the very first play Mike Murphy
was forced to retire to the side-
lines for treatment of a bloody cut
in the face, and at once there were
some who were predicting “cur-
tains” for Winchester.
On the -third play after that, the
same Mr. Murphy, who had return-
ed to the game unnoticed by your
reporter, broke into the Wakefield
hackfield and stopped left halfback
Jeffrey in hi» tracks with a jolting
tackle, which prompted the 145-
pound scat-hack to remain prone
on the ground while he tried to
remember what day of the week it
was.
On both ofTensc and defense,
Mike was a bearcat, ploughing
roughshod through the Wakefield
line for consistent gains and raging
up and down behind his own line
on defense, snarling at his mates to
do their stuff, with the result that
the Winchester line gave the crowd
the finest sample of rugged line
play seen this season.

Even the loss of Jim Cusack,
veteran star guard from the line
near the close of the first half did-
n’t discourage his mates. As a mat-
ter of fact, it may have added to
their determination to “win this
one tor Jim.” Denny Doucette, who
replaced Jim at guard and who had
had the misfortune to suffer a
broken front tooth in scrimmage
two days before, did a fine job fill-
ing Jim’s shoes for the remainder
of the game.
It is not the purpose of the writ-
er to suggest that Wakefield field-
ed a weak or a poorly coached team
last Saturday. Any team which is
scored upon only once in six games
can’t he laughed off.
Wakefield fans had every reason
to be proud of their team and to
anticipate another victory as the
two teams lined up for the kick-
oil’. W akefield had scored 137 points
m six games against only 6 by
their opponents. Winchester in se-
ven games had totaled 167 points
against 77 by opponents Wakefield
had beaten Stoneham by three
touchdowns, while Winchester had
beaten the same team by only two.
Wakefield trounced Melrose 34 to
0, while Winchester had squeezed
by Melrose with a 20 to 13 score.
Most of Wakefield’s first team
had journeyed to Winchester on
Monday to watch Winchester heat
Belmont 28 to 13, hut because our 1
seconds played most of the second
half, the hoys from Wakefield may |
well have carried away a false idea
of Winchester’s power. They may :
have been over-confident last Sat- 1
urday — and who could blame
them ? It just wasn’t Wakefield’s
day for football. They couldn’t have
realized what kind of football team
they were facing when the whistle
blew for the first kick-off, hut the
game wasn’t many minutes old be-
fore they were aware of- the fact
that they has been tossed into a
cage of wildcats.
In Ralph Tropeano, 143-pound
right halfback, Wakefield showed a
clever and shifty open-field runner,
hut he was able to flash on only
one occasion, so successfully wus
he bottled up by Winchester’s
charging ends and tackles. On his
one successful dash of 28 yards into
the clear his scoring plans were
rudely upset by a fine saving tackle
by Dave Pratt.
Winchester wasted little time in
the first quarter. After forcing
Wakefield to punt twice, the In-
dians showed their offensive power
in a 56-yard drive from their own
10-yard line to score on a pretty
pitchout to Bellino from the one-
yard line. This scoring play had
been set up by a 36-yard pass to
Bellino, who caught the hall over
his shoulder and caromed off two
defenders to the one-yard line.
Wakefield’s first score came in
the second quarter when, after
Tropeano’s 28-yard end sweep, in-
terference by Winchester was call-
ed on a pass into the end zone, giv-
ing Wakefield a first down on
Winchester’s one-yard line. Boh
Bisaere scored through the line on
second down. Wakefield’s final
score came as the result of rather
sketchy pass defense on the part
of the Winchester substitute hacks
in the final quarter.
Dave Rotundi, substitute full-
back for Winchester, kicked four
consecutive goals after touchdowns.
And that was on top of kicking
four straight against Belmont on
the previous Monday! Eight
straight isn’t bad! Bill Ross piloted
the seconds during much of the
final quarter and, while Wakefield
was able to score on them, the sec-
onds played as if they meant busi-
ness.
A great deal of credit should be
given to the officials of the game:
James Jordan, Roco Lasala, James
McGuinness, and Joseph Duffy, all
of whom did a fine job in keeping
the game in control from stall to
finish, in spite of the intense feel-
ing which the game had inspired
and in spite of the hard-hitting
tactics used by both teams. The
game was cleanly played, although
seventeen penalties were handed
out for various offenses, with Win-
chester receiving the lion’s share
of twelve. Of the seventeen penal-
ties, only two were for unnecessary
roughness.
During the game Winchester
used thirty-four players as against
Wakefield’s twenty-one. And once
more, let it be remembered that
this was u team victory and a mag-
nificent one, reflecting great credit
on players and coaches alike,
j Which brings us down to the last
game of the season, the annual
Thanksgiving Day game with Wo-
burn. It will he our last chance to
watch a team that started slow
hut that has improved rapidly and
tremendously from game to game
until they can hold up their heads
with any team which has repre-
sented Winchester for many years.
Wakefield won the toss and
chose to receive.
Riordan kicked off to Tropeano
on the Wakefield 17. Tropeano
made a nice runback to the Wake-
field 37, Jeffrey made good yardage
on first down at right end, but a
hack-in-motion penalty put the hull
hack on Wakefield’s 32 yard line.
On second down, Jeffrey made five
yards at right end. Tropeano made
only one at right tackle, and on
third down Jeffrey was stopped by
a jolting tackle by Murphy for a
loss of a yard. On fourth down
Montgomery punted to Bellino on
the Winchester 27, where he was
; stopped with no run-back.
Murphy made a yard at left
guurd and Bellino carried 14 yards
for a first down on the 42.
Cusack recovered a Winchester
; fumble on the next play. A hack-
in-motion nullified a short gain by
i Bellino on second down, hut Joe
• picked up five yards on a cross
buck, and on third down made two
| more at right end. On 4th down
Bellino punted, a beautiful kiek
that rolled out of hounds on the
Wakefield five yard line.
On two rushes Wakefield picked
up only three yards, and Mont-
gomery got away a quick kick on
third down that went over Bellino’s
head and rolled dead on the Win-
chester 44.
Pratt made six yards through
center to the 50. Bellino made one
at left guard, and Murphy made it
first down on the Wakefield 44.
Bellino and Murphy combined
again in two plays through the
line for u first down on the Wake-
field 34 yard line.
Bellino made three yards on a

cross buck. A hack-in-motion
penalty on the next play cost five
yards. Then Pratt, taking advan-
tage of Wakefield’s packed defense,
threw a long pass to Bellino, who
was finally howled over on the
Wakefield one yard line.
Pratt and Murphy tried in vain
to carry through the center of the
line on two plays. Then on a pitch-
out Bellino skirted right end for
the score. Rotundi kicked the
point after. Score: Winchester 7;
Wakefield 0.
Rotundi kicked off to the Wake-
field 10 yard line, to Bisaere who
carried the hall hack to the Wake-
field 39 by some brilliant open-
field running. A penalty on Win-
chester for unnecessary roughness
on the play gave Wakefield fifteen
more yards and a first down on the
Winchester 48.
On first down Tropeano skirted
left end for 28 yards, being stopped
by a fine tackle by Pratt, on the
20 yard line.
On the next play Tropeano car-
ried again for 9 yards to the
eleven.
Second Quarter
Jeffrey carried to the 6 yard line
for a first down and then lost 3
yards on a line buck. Tropeano
got hack two through the line. On
third down Montgomery passed in-
to the end zone where a Winchester
defense man was charged with in-
terference, although he played the
hall and not the man. This penalty
gave Wakefield the hall on the one
yard line for a first down. On two
line plays Bisaere scored. Bisaere
missed the try for point after and
the score was Winchester 7; Wake-
field 6.
Haliday kicked off to Bellino,
who was nailed on the Winchester
19 yard line, and a clipping penalty
on Winchester on the play put the
hall hack on the 4 yard line first
down. Pratt hit the center of the
line for 2 yards, then Murphy drove
to the 17 for a first down.
Haggerty made five yards at left
tackle. On a pitchout, Bellino was
thrown for a seven yard loss. On
4th down Bellino punted to Mont-
gomery just over midfield, hut
Wakefield was penalized 15 yards
for roughing the kicker on the play
and Winchester took the hall for a
first down on the 30 yard line.
Murphy made five yards at right
tackle. Haggerty was held for no
gain on a line buck. Pratt’s pass
was intercepted by Wakefield on
the Wakefield 43 yard line and
Wakefield took over.
On a double reverse, Wakefield
fumbled and Murphy recovered for
Winchester on tin* Winchester 47.
In three plays through the off-
tuckle holes Murphy and Bellino
carried to a first down on the Wake-
field 37.
Pratt hulled through center for
8 yards to the 29. On second down
Bellino took a pitchout from Pratt
and by clever dodging and faking
went the distance to score standing
up, a run of 29 yards. Rotundi
kicked tin* point after. Score:
Winchest» i . 14; Wakefield, 6.
Rotundi kicked off to Bonomo on
the Wakefield II) and the ball was
run baek to the 36. Montgomery
failed to find a receiver on a pass
attempt. On second down he threw j
a long pass to Fotino deep in Win- *
Chester territory, hut the big end
dropped the hall while in the clear.
| Tropeano lost a yard on an attempt
to skirt the end. On this play Jim
Cusack suffered a broken leg and
had to be removed from the game.
Jeffrey punted out of hounds on the
Winchester 48.
Haggerty made one yard on a 1
cross buck. Bellino lost 10 yards on
an attempted reverse from Murphy,
and the half ended with the score I
W inchester, 14; Wakefield, 6.
Second Half
Haliday opened the second half
by kicking olf to Murphy on the 30 I
and Mike barreled his way to the
43.
Murphy lost a yard through the |
line, hut on second down Bellino :
carried around light end for 25
yards to the Wakefield 33.
Haggerty hit off tackle for a first !
down on the 23.
Two short gains were nullified j
hy a five yard penalty for delaying
the game hy substitution and
Pratt's pass on third down was in-
tercepted by W akefield on their 19
yard line.
On the following play O’Brien
recovered a Wakefield fumble on
the 14 yard line.
After making no yardage on
three line bucks, Pratt missed his
target on a pass attempt on fourth
down and Wakefield took over on
their 16 yard line.
Mantini stopped Montgomery be-
hind the line of scrimmage, O’Don-
nell made two yards at left guard.
Tropeano made five at left tackle.
On fourth down on an attempt to
punt, the ball was passed far over
Montgomery’s head and was barely
recovered by him on his own 1 yard
line.
On first down Murphy broke
through center to score.
Rotundi kicked the point after,
making the score Winchester, 21;
Wakefield, 6.
Rotundi kicked off to Sylvester,
who brought the hall from his own
15 to the 30. On first down Mont-
gomery passed 33 yards to Fotino
on the Winchester 37. On the next
play Bellino made a beautiful in-
terception of Montgomery’s pass,
but a penalty on Winchester after
the interception placed the ball on
the Winchester 18 in Winchester’s
possession.
Murphy recovered Bellino’s fum-
ble on first down on the 15. Mur-
phy made no gain ut the center of
the line. Bellino carried without
gain, hut a penalty of 15 yards

roughness gave Winchester first
down on the 32.
In two plays Bellino and Murphy
carried to the 46 for another first
down.
Filial Quarter
Haggerty made 4 yards through
right tackle. Bellino lost three
yards on an attempt to sweep right
end. Haggerty drove through to
the 8 yard line. On 4th down Pratt
passed into the end zone to Dattilo,
who caught a hatted hall and scored
l lie touchdown. Rotundi kicked his
fourth consecutive goal of the
game. Score: Winchester, 28;
Wakefield 6.
With the Seconds in the game,
Rotundi kicked off to Bisaere on the
20. The whistle hadn't blown and
the kick was made over, the hall
rolling to the Wakefield 15.
On two line bucks and one pass
attempt Wakefield made no yard-
age against the spirited Seconds
and punted on fourth down to the
Wakefield 46.
On three consecutive line plays
McLaughlin totaled only 2 yards
and Jacobellis punted on 4th down
to Montgomery. A Winchester off-
side on tiie play gave Jacobellis an-
other chance to punt to the Wake-
field 20, where the hall was fumbled
and recovered hy Nelson on the 25.
McLaughlin fumbled on first
down and Wakefield recovered on
the 21.
Wakefield was unable to advance
the hall on three downs and punted
on 4th down to Jacobellis, who
brought the hall to the Wakefield
84.
Rimlmch lost 8 yards on a pitch-
out. Ross passed to Gove over the
line for 12 yards. J. Murphy made
2 in the line. On a double-reverse
Winchester lost 10 yards and the
ball.
Winchester was penalized 15
yards for holding on the next play
and Wakefield had a first down on
the Winchester 47. On a weird pass
play combined with a fumbled
lateral Wukefield lost a yard. On
4th down Montgomery passed 23
yards to O’Donnell on the 20.
On second down another pass
was completed on the 4 yard line
to a man completely uncovered. On
a line buck Dennehy scored for
Wakefield and Bisaere kicked the
point after. Score 28-13.
Haliday kicked off to the Win-
chester 49 and Winchester was
twice penalized for delaying the
game and for holding, giving
Wakefield the hall on the Wake-
field 45 as the game ended.

HOW MANY DEATHS!
Editor of the Star:
The first big announcement by
the promoters of our Elevated
Railroad appearing in all the Bos-
ton and local papers and repeatedly
circulated was: ‘*100 Deaths in a
100 Years”, featured below a pic-
I ture of our Railroad Crossing in
the Square.
The most recent frightening ver-
sion of the Crossing danger ap-
peared in last week’s Star signed
by “Chairman of the Committee for
Grade Crossing Elimination and
Traffic By-Pass” and reads: “At
Least 43 Deaths As Result Of Ac-
cidents The Past 10 Years.” “Rail-
road Tracks’’- Where? Between
Here and Boston or Here and New
York? The Question Concerns The
Railroad Crossing in Winchester
Center Only.” “43 Deaths Includ-
ing 2 Fatalities” — fortunate that
the remaining 41 deaths were
imaginary.
When I stated during our pre-
vious Referendum that 3 deaths in
50 years was the accurate number
I quoted from a letter from the
general counsel for the Boston &
Maine Railroad, one of our own
residents. With thanks to Mr.
Fletcher for his kind permission, I
submit herewith the entire letter
for your information:

We made a couple of errors in
our Grade Crossing editorial last
week, and though our corrections
can come only on the actual refe-
rendum voting day we still want
to make them. “Vin” Farnsworth
called one of the errors to our at-
tention. At the end of our remarks
we staled “Nothing like a majority
of the town’s electorate has voted
on the overhead tracks proposal.”
That is a misstatement, and it is
not what we intended to say. What
we meant was thut a majority of
the electorate as yet hasn’t voted
for the overhead tracks. Mr. Farns-
worth contends, and he is “so
right,” that the total of those fa-
voring and opposing the overhead
at the time of the ’52 referendum
constituted a majority of the elec-
torate. At the time of writing this
no one had called in to report that
we said “east side” of the tracks
in referring to Mr. Lyman’s cost
of land takings estimate when we
meant “west side,” where the tem-
porary tracks will go. We offer our
apologies for both mistakes. Not as
an excuse, but in partial extenua-
tion, may we say that last week
was quite a week at the Star office.
There were times when we really
wondered whether we would make
the grade, and we do not moan a
railroad grade, either!

LET S LOOK AT THE RECORD
Editor of the Star:
In response to inquiries about the
basis for the statement “forty-three
known deaths from accidents on the
tracks” we are appending a list of
those accidents.
Further investigation has in-
creased the number to forty-seven.
This list has been compiled from
police records, old copies of the
Star and other Bourses which show
that a majority of the accidents
occurred in the near vicinity of the
center. Probably most of them in-
volved no legal liability on the part
of the railroad but they are none-
the-less fatalities resulting from
accidents on the tracks.
The list does not include injuries
or narrow escapes of which there
have been many.

Doubtless there is much to be
said on both sides of the question
of the removal of soil for sale or
other purpose from land not in the
public use. There have very prob-
ably been abuses of the public in-
terest in such removal and there
may be a great need for clarifying
and, within reason, restricting the
statute governing such removal in
Winchester. It was well, we think,
that the much more stringent re-
strictions incorporated in the arti-
cle that came up at Monday’s spe-
cial town meeting were referred to
a committee for study and report
with recommendations; and while
the committee is at it they should
carefully consider the advisability
of having the Board of Appeal ac-
tually issue permits for soil re-
moval in the future. The Board of
Appeul has been and, it would
seem, should he a judicial body re-
viewing applications for relief
from rulings believed too arbitrary
by those refused permission to do
this or that by duly constituted
town officials, a review board, if
you please, to determine wheth-
er justice to the community and the
individual petitioner has been done.
To have the Appeal Board actually
issue permits for soil removal
would seem to leave the petitioner
with no recourse outside court ae-
tion should the Board decide not to
grant his original request. The
committee studying the proposed
new law ought to be quite sure this
is going to work out well.
Mrs. Alonzo F. Woodside
42 Lebanon street
Winchester, Mass.
Dear Mrs. Woodside:
You have requested information
with reference to what the Rail-
road’s records show as to accidents
occurring on the Church and Main
street crossings in the center of
Winchester. This information as
drawn from the records of the Rail-
roads is as follows:
Our records as to death cases go
back to 1805. During this time
there have been three fatal acci-
dents on the crossing, all caused by
collisions between trains and high-
way vehicles. The dates of these
three are: October 2(’», 1904; Octo-
, ber 18, 1913, and January 21, 1944.
| In addition, on November 23, 1949,
a Miss Elizabeth O’Mally was
struck by a train and killed near
the crossing when she was walking
around the fence in the course of
an attempt to cross from the out-
bound to the inbound platform. We
do not consider that this should bo
classed as a crossing accident.
Commencing in 1923, we have
records of accidents resulting in
serious injury or damage to prop-
erty. During the period to 1937
there were no such found in our
records.
Commencing January 1, 1937, we
have detailed records of all types
of mishaps. From that date to the
present, there have been nine in-
stances of injuries due to pedes-
trians slipping or stumbling and
falling while walking across the
tracks at the crossing, and two in-
stances of pedestrians being struck
by the gates coming down.
In the accident of January 21,
1944 one person was killed, another
seriously injured. On November 3,
1951 there was an automobile col-
lision on the crossing injuring five
persons, but so far as our records
show, there was no train involved.
In addition, on November 15, 1945
a train struck a stalled automobile
on the crossing doing considerable
damage but not resulting in any
personal injury.
In addition to the above, there
have been several instances of
automobiles damaging the crossing
gates or signs, and a few instances
of malicious mischief by boys.
The above is the complete story
so far as it can be ascertained from
the Railroad’s records.
Very truly yours,

A MATTER OF RECORD!
Winchester followers of the high
school football team were impress-
ed with the way the Wakefield po-
lice handled the serious accident
which befell Jim Cusack, guard on
the local team, who had the misfor-
tune to break his leg toward the
end of the second quarter of play
in the Wakefield game Saturday.
The Wakefield police ambulance
was ready at the field for just such
an emergency and the injured Win-
chester player was removed in it to
the Winchester Hospital with the
least possible delay, which is im-
portant in such injuries as he sus-
tained. Wakefield keeps its ambu-
lance at the football field each Sat-
urday that a football game is play-
ed there, to be ready in case there
is injury to the players or illness
or accident in the stands. With two-
way radio the ambulance is equally
available for any other use for
which it may be needed, even
though it is in readiness at the
football field. It is simply taken
there to stand instead of being left
in the garage. Last Saturday its
availability meant much to Jim Cu-
sack, his parents and every Win-
chester follower of the team. It
must have given the Wakefield peo-
ple a lift, too, to know that a boy
who was an athletic guest of the
town was being given very neces-
sary emergency service with the
least possible delay. Many felt the
ALTERNATIVES
Editor of the Star:
One of the best letters in the Star
for November Sixth accented the
point that alternative plans for the
Grade-Crossing had not been given
sufficient study. In some cases,
good ideas have been “brushed
aside” with the remark, “Ramps
too steep”.
From 1945, the writer has given
more hours, probably to this prob-
lem, than the average citizen has.
After all, most of our Town Offi-
cials do not claim to be engineers
and have no special qualifications
enabling them to decide this prob-
lem for us. The experts do not
agree, even.
There are good alternative plans.
Mr. Kellaway gave generously of
time and money. Many of us feel
he had the makings of the best so-
lution in his plans. His ideas were
so sound that the B. & M. Engin-
eering Department based their plan
on the Kellaway idea of an Over-
pass (Vehicular) just north of the
Center. (See Star for January 10,
1947).
At about that same time the
writer offered a plan based on the
same idea but modified to meet
changed property conditions over
the past twenty years. The Mott
Plan was an attempt to correlate
several needs that were confronting
us at the same time, namely, The
Grade-Crossing Elimination, The
New High School, a centralized
school area serving Junior and Se-
nior High Schools by closing a part
of south Main street, a Centralized
Bus Transfer Point and greatly in-
creased efficiency for the Fire De-
j partment. The Mott Plan gave a
quick get-a-way to all parts of
town. This can still be done if the
new By-Pass is planned to run from
the eastern end of old Town Hall
to a new traffic circle west of the
Winchester Theatre.
The above is a variation of the
scale model you may have seen in
store windows in past years.

i Editor of the Star:
In your editorial of last Friday,
i you say: “As a matter of fact at
the 1952 meeting Mr. Lyman stated
! that the cost for land damages, if
the temporary tracks went to the
east of the present road-bed, would
be about $03,365.00.”
The only figures then reported by
me to the town were the assessed
valuations of the property expected
to be taken under each of the alter-
native routes for the temporary
tracks. Certainly I did not intend
to suggest that those figures would
be the cost for land damages and
I feel sure that if any other mem-
ber of the Selectmen or the Plan-
ning .Board (or the Town Counsel
for that matter) had thought that
this distinction was not being clear-
ly stated he would have corrected
me at the meeting.
It is a matter of common know-
ledge that there is no telling what
the cost of land damages is going
to be in any particular case until
an agreement has been reached or
until a jury has made its award in
a court proceeding.
Assessed valuations were stated
for the purpose of bringing all
available information before the
meeting, but I did not speculate
upon what the eventual amount of
damages might he.
We have, in fact, a record of
what the Selectmen told the town
about the grade crossing project in
1952 in the form of the Special Re-
port of the Selectmen, written by
me, signed by all members of that
Board, printed on the Star’s press-
es, and delivered to every home
with the warrant for the 1952
referendum which followed the
town meeting in question.
In that report (which is re-
printed beginning at page 305 of
the 1952 Town Reports) there ap-
peared the following statement:
“The only figures which are obtain-
able at this time, and they do not
hear any controlling relation to the
extent of damages, are the assessed
valuations of the property which
would be taken under each of the
alternative methods of temporarily
relocating the tracks. The assessed
value of the property which would
be taken were the tracks to be
temporarily relocated on the west
side of the Center is $02,307. The
assessed value of the property
which would be taken were the
tracks to be temporarily relocated
entirely to the east of the present
line, so that it would be necessary
to demolish the buildings on the
west side of Thompson street, would
be $172,850.”
That 1952 report went on to say:
“Commissioner Callahan is expect-
ed to announce bis decision shortly
with regard to temporary reloca-
tion of the tracks. It may then he
possible for the Board of Select-
men to arrive at a tentative agree-
ment with the Commonwealth lim-
iting to some definite figure the ex-
tent of Winchester’s liability to re-
imburse the State for damages. As
was pointed out at the Town Meet-
ing, it will then in any event he
necessary for the Selectmen to
present such a proposed agreement
to another Town Meeting for ap-
proval and appropriation of what-
ever funds are needed.”
I do not see how the entire mat-
ter of cost to the town could have
1 been more fairly stated or the
danger of confusing “damages”
with “assessed valuations” more
carefully warned against.

Kellaway Plan, the former chair- part of any large public improve-
man devotes approximately half a provement program. In the past
olumn to disparaging remarks
about this plan, stating that "the
taking of property would include
the whole or part of some 15 build-
ings and about half of the front
lawn of the Congregational
Church.”
No one knows better than the
former chairman that these fea-
tures were abandoned long ago and
we are discussing the "modified
plan.” The overpass would cover
exactly the same location ns the
underpass proposed by the propo-
nents of the elevated, only ours
would be an overpass in the exact
same location over the tracks as
they are to eliminate danger and
delay. Neither plan would take any
part of the Congregational Church
lawn — that is merely a “red her-
ring” scare statement. The chair-
man further refers to our towns-
man, “Commissioner Yolpe, who
recommends the plan.” “It was not
always thus.” Until initiated into
our political society, our present
Commissioner opposed the “over-
head” plan.

OUR "LOYAL OPPOSITION'
weeks, these facts have been so
distorted by opponents to the plan
that it seems that a deliberate at-
tempt is being made to mislead the
voters.
A statement has been printed
that temporary tracks will pass
through the back yards of Spruce
street residents. The fact is that
the tracks used will be those now
part of the freight sidings on the
west of the right of way, and the
trains will he farther from Spruce
street than they are right now.
It has been printed that Swan-
ton street residents will look up
at twelve to twenty foot walls ris-
ing in front of their homes. The
fact is that they will be above and
look out over the walls, — the walls
are those that will support the
sides of an underpass and they will
extend down, not up.
No attempt to minimize the in-
convenience, both temporary and
permanent, to the residents of
Swanton-Spruce street area has
been or should be made. They will
hoar the brunt of the damage to
person and property, but there is
no reason to believe that their loss
will not be suitably compensated.
Certainly a modern underpass will
provide a cleaner, better looking,
and safer area than that now pro-
vided by th archaic, monstrous, and
dirty structure that bridges the
tracks.
An attempt has been made to
create the idea that this project
will have an adverse affect on our
conversation and the use of news
papers it has been hinted and ru-
mored that we could not build our
school if we took care of the Grade
Crossing.
Every voter should go on record
at the polls this Friday. It is now
or never. Vote but do so only after
being sure of the facts.

DID NOT SPEAK FOR HIM
Editor of the Star:
There have been a number of let-
ters published opposing the elim-
ination of the grade crossing to
which signatures were attached
implying that these writers spoke
for all the residents in the Swan-
ton street area.
I am sure that this is untrue
since I live in that area close to
the tracks and not only am I in
favor of eliminating the crossing
but I know many others in this
neighborhood who feci as I do.
Anything done along the railroad
will be an improvement over the
present conditions. We should have
faith in the various committees who
have studied this problem and have
recommended raising the tracks
after getting the best possible en-
gineering advice over the past ten
years.
We should support this plan by
voting Yes on Friday.

NOT FIRST
UNANIMOUS SCHOOL VOTE
Your Star reporter was on bis
way from last Thursday’s special
town meeting, pleased two ways,
first with the brevity of the meet-
ing, and second, that something
like an adequate high school had
been voted, when a mighty tug at
his coattails brought him up with
a round turn.
He discovered that his progess
had been stopped by none other
than “Jack” Wakefield who claimed
Harold Farnsworth was wrong in
claiming the unanimous vote on the
remodelling of the junior high
school as the first unanimous vote
on a school building project since
1922.
“The vote on the George Wash-
ington School addition proposal in
March in 1951 was unanimous”
said Mr. Wakefield, “and I think
you should so state in your paper.”
Well, the man is right! Investi-
gation at the town clerk’s office dis-
closed that the George Washington
School addition vote was without
dissent, though it was a voice vote
and not polled.
Whether or not the George
Washington committee got a “vot-
ing rise of thanks” we really do not
remember!

However, it is my understanding
that the Town’s consultant, in offer-
ing three solutions, placed in first
order an enlarged traffic route be-
ginning at Swanton street. Here
the height of land is ideal for over-
passing the* railroad, and Nature
shows herself the Town’s best
friend. It seems logical, and I be-
lieve it is THE BETTER WAY.
The Opposition at the several meet-
ings of the Selectmen for discus-
sion of the Elevation plun, and let-
ters of protest to the Winchester
Star, has maintained that no con-
certed effort has been made except
to push the Selectmen’s own favor-
ite idea of beginning with zero at j
the Medford line and raising the
roadbed to a level of 19 feet at the
Centre, with underpasses there and
at Wcdgemere for vehicular traffic.
This would be of solid, granite-
faced construction. In many in
stances no hardship would be caus- j
ed, but this town of ours is unique
in, that a structure such as this
would literally cut the place in
two. The prospect speaks for it-
self! On the one hand a chance
to preserve and better what we
have by proper traffic routes and
railing off the Boston and Main 1
Railroad; and on the other hand !
a costly nightmare dividing East I
from West, erected at tremendous I
cost. Disorder and disruption for
all, loss and calamity for diligent
and deserving tradesmen; unspeak-
able distress for sick and well for
more than two years; and THEN,
to continue indefinitely, the ever-
increasing volume of cars and
trucks cutting through the shop-
ping center in competition with our
own would-be shoppers.
THE VOTING is to-duy; but at
any cost before you do vote visit
the Centre and compare the heights
of Railroad Track level and run-
ning Passenger and Freight Trains,
with everything around:

m somtonf Is Against private ownership of property,
lie must be for something else. The communists make no hones
about what they arc for. They want to take your property away
from you, and have it owned and managed by thc state. In actual
practice, ihc communists’ ’’state" is an inner ruling clique —
men who wax fat and grow rich on thc misery and unhappiness
of others.
Private ownership is part of thc basic philosophy of our Amer-
ican way of life. An American, even though born in poverty,
may strive for success and happiness to thc utmost of his ability.
1 1c may own a car. a home, shares in corporations, and may even
have a business of his own.
It is thc incentive of owning things without political domina-
tion and control that inspires Americans to rise to heights of
ingenuity and productiveness that arc thc envy of thc world.
Private ownership is an important principle of onr free enter-
prise system. Don’t let anyone ever take this right away from you.
America’s privately-owned hanks continue to meet the in-
creasing demands of individuals, businesses and commu-
nities for more and better banking services. Whenever you

COMMISSIONER SPOKE
AT TOWN HALL
Patrick Tompkins, State Com-
missioner of Public Welfare, was
guest speaker Wednesday at the
luncheon meeting of the Winches-
ter Social Agencies Group in the
General Committee Room at the
Town Hall. Don S. Greer, chair-
man of the Board of Selectmen,
was also present and spoke.
Mr. Thompkins, introduced by
Francis McFeeley, Boy Scout exe-
cutive, spoke on “Public Welfare”
and gave a most interesting ad-
dress, emphasizing the fact that
real welfare is much more than
handing money to a needy family.
Real welfare work should go much
further than financial aid and
should take into account the better-
ment of the family and social unit
to which the petitioner for welfare
belongs.

GOING TO BE SNOW!
Chief of Police Charles J. Har-
rold watched a load of Thanksgiv-
ing pumpkins going by yesterday,
and through a process of logical
deduction, lie saw in them a warn-
ing to motorists.
“When the frost is on the pump-
kin,” the chief said, “it means that
pretty soon there’s going to he
snow.”
November snowstorms, Chief
Harrold said, can he more hazard-
ous to motorists than January bliz-
zards, for the reason that they
come unexpectedly and find many
motorists unprepared both mechan-
ically and psychologically for the
problems that snow driving brings.
Right now is the time, Chief Har-
rold emphasized for all wise
motorists to observe the following
safety rules:
1. Don’t blame accidents on the
weather; be prepared for had
weather.
2. When snow comes, get the
“feel” of the road when starting
out.
3. Keep the windshield clear of
fog and frost, and be sure head-
lights, windshield wiper blades, and
defrosters are working.
4. On snow and ice, use tire
chains. They cut stopping distance
in half, and give 4 to 7 times great-
er traction.
5. When you have to stop, don’t
jam on the brakes. “Pump” your
brakes to avoid skids.
6. Follow other cars at a safe
distance. Give yourself room in
which to stop.
Asked if tire chains are neces-
sary if a car has ‘winterized” tires,
Chief Harrold said that the report
of the National Safety Council’s
Committee on Winter Driving
Hazards has found that snow tires
with special treads cannot approach
tire chains for safety.
Even less reliable, Chief Har-
rold added, are so called “inertia
or gyro type anti-skid devices.”
These, he explained, are mysterious
pipe-like gadgets which are being
widely sold and installed under the
rear frame or luggage trunk of
automobiles, on the claim that they
prevent winter skids. National
Safety Council tests, the chief said,
show these so-called “stabilizing”
devices to he of no help whatever
on snow or ice. He warned against
being misled into trouble by a false
sense of security.

In this rollicking English comedy

ties. This will he his third appear-
ance with the Tufts Community

BURNED IN FIRE AT HOME
Mrs. Margaret Wyer was burned

last Thursday afternoon. The fire
originated in a closet and burned
articles of clothing as well as gut-
ting the closet and eating out into
the room at one spot.
Mrs. Wyer was attended by Dr.
Richard W. Sheehy.
While the local apparatus was at
the Fernald fire the firefigthers
were called to the Marchesi store
at 32 Swanton street, where a fire
was reported in the basement of
the building. The men found upon
arrival that the fire was in the rub-
bish in the rear store and it was
put out with slight damage. Appa-
ratus from Woburn covered while
the local department was at the
Marchesi fire.
NEW TELEPHONE DIRECTORY
TO BE DELIVERED
This year's edition of the Boston
and vicinity telephone directory,
delivery of which begins today,
marks the 75 anniversary of Bos-
ton’s first telephone directory, is-
sued in the fall of 1878.
The new directory, again bigger
than ever with 1240 pages, contains
around 587,200 listings. Its for-
bear of three quarters of a century
ago had fewer than 70 listings, all
on a single sheet.
The Telephone Compuny estim-
ates it will take until nearly the
end of the month to complete deliv-
ery of some 750,000 copies of the
new book throughout the Greater
Boston area. Delivery of the yel-
low-paged classified telephone dir-
ectory will begin in early Decem-
ber.

TOWN MEETING VOTE
SCHOOL FUND
(Continued from Page 1)
It is hoped thnt the classrooms
at the revamped junior high school
will be ready for occupancy by se-
nior high pupils next September
and that the entire work nt the
building will be completed by the
Christmas vacation next year.
Mr. Speers admitted thnt the new
high school may not he large en-
ough for long, although his com-
mittee’s best judgment based on
available figures, is thnt there will
soon be a leveling off in school
population. How long the new
building will be adequate is any
one’s guess, but in the committee’s
judgment it will not be feasible to
add to the building again.
As a consequence, if and when
the building becomes overcrowded
the solution, in the Committee’s
opinion, would seem to be to put
the town on the educator-favored
6-3-3 plan, having the high school
house three grades, and the junior
high school, three grades. In the
event of this operating plan, it
would he necessary to construct a
new junior high school for use with
the junior high to he remodelled
from the present senior high build-
ing. With these two junior high
buildings and a three year senior
high school the Building Commit-
tee believes the schools can func-
tion adequately until the town’s
population reaches 21,000.
Mr. Speers explained that of the
$1,886,250.00 appropriated for the
junior high school job, $1,700,000
will be by bond issue, $1,000,000
within the debt limit of the town,
and $700,000 outside the debt limit.
Added to this sum is $20,743.20
from the Sale of Town Property
Fund, and two transfers from the
Excess and Deficiency Fund, $15,-
512.80 as down-payment on the
bond issue and $60,000 for remodel-
ling, this breakdown being neces-
sary to comply with State-aid fin-
ancing.
Mr. Redding followed Mr. Speers,
giving the plan the Finance Com-
mittee's blessing, and Mrs. Wood-
ward added the endorsement of the
School Committee, praising the
Building Committee highly for its
cooperation and fine job done. Mr.
Greer expressed the Selectmen’s
approval nnd Mr. Lane, that of the
Planning Board.
For a breathless moment the hall
was absolutely quiet as Mr. Wads-
worth asked for any additional
speakers. None arising, the vote
was taken and announced as 147
affirmative and none in opposition.
Mr. Harold Farnsworth then
arose and said that inasmuch as
this marked the first time a school
vote had gone through unanimous-
ly since 1922 he felt a rising vote
of thanks was due the Building
Committee and Mr. Speers. The
meeting concurred and dissolved at
8:47 p. m.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES

TO PRESENT .
ANNUAL WINTER CONCERT
MYSTIC SCHOOL TEACHERS'
LUNCHEON
“You girls are doing a good job,”
volunteered John I. Donovan, “keep
it up.” Then he handed an un-
solicited contribution to Mrs. Wil-
liam Davies, President of the
League of Women Voters of Win-
chester.
News of this spontaneous token
of approval was an inspiration to
solicitors, meeting Tuesday morn-
ing, at the home of the Finance
Chairman, Mrs. William E. Spauld-
ing, to launch a one-week finance
drive.
Mrs. Rodney Long, Finance
Chairman of the State League,
provided momentum by staging a
live interview with Sherman Rus-
sell.
Mr. Russells’ penetrating ques-
tions served better than a lecture
course to bring out the facts needed
by the solicitors. They pointed
up ways of explaining the League’s
continued efforts to “promote in-
formed and active participations of
citizens in government” in the
years between national elections,
while maintaining a striek policy of
non-partizanship as an organiz-
ation.
Mrs. Long’s replies were fully
factual, but invited further ques-
tions if more details were desired.
In explaining how dues are kept
low so that anyone can enjoy mem-
bership, she also brought out that
about ten hours of volunteer work
are spent for every dollar from the
budget.
Members of the Finance Commit-
tee are:
Mrs. Theodore Atkinson
Mra. Henry A. Dellickcr
Mrs. Robert A. Drake
Miss Natalie Jewett
Mm. Rowland V. Patrick
Mrs. Philip Woodward
Additional solicitors include:
Mrs. Howard Aiken
Mm. Robert Bryant
Mm. Isaiah Bullard
Mrs. Roger Burton
Mrs. Frank Ilnwkina
Mrs. Thomas Hennessey
Mrs. Edgar Hinton
Mrs. Olcott I.. Hooper
Mrs. Philip H. Johnson
Mrs. Richard Johnson
Mrs. Leonard Mead
Mra. Larry H. Pexton
Mrs. Oscar W. Surtees
Mra. Walter W. Winship
Public-spirited citizens are being
asked to consider a contribution tc
the League of Women Voters as an
investment in democracy, with
dividends in the form of more
responsive and responsible govern-
ment.
Mrs. William Spaulding, 379
Main street, is receiving non-mem-
ber contributions. Contributions
from members are handled by the
Treasurer, Mrs. A. Allen Kimball.

Survivors of the Worcester
County tornado disaster may re-
ceive an estimated total of $120,000
in social security insurance pay-
ments. according to a statement
made today by the Social Security
office.
This total of eventual benefits
will he in the form of monthly in-
surance payments to entitled sur-
vivors of family breadwinners, and
lump sum death payments to
families or adminstrators who paid
burial expenses.
Of the 87 victims of the tornado,
nearly one-half, 38, were in-
sured under the old-age and sur-
vivors insurance provisions of the
social security law. Many of those
killed were women and children, as
the twister struck hardest in resi-
dential sections just before most
wage earners bad returned home at
the end of the work day. Social
security insurance benefits are pay-
able only to entitled survivors of
insured workers.
There arc six widows, one aged
dependent parent, and ten children
now getting monthly survivors in-
surance* payments based on the so-
cial security wage records of work-
ers killed in the disaster. Three of
the widows are not yet 65 but were
entitled to immediate benefit pay-
ments because they have minoT
children of the deceased worker in
their care. These widows will con-
tinue to get monthly payments un-
til the youngest child in the family
reaches 18, or marries before that
«ge.
Three widows of the tornado
victims who are now 65 or over are
getting monthly payments totaling
$125.50 per month. Another widow,
aged 70, is getting $40.20 monthly,
i About $6,800 in lumpsum death
i payments will have been paid when
all applications for such payments
have been bled by the families or
administrators of the insured tor-
nado victims.
The same protection illustrated in
this community when the disaster
struck among heads of families is
now covering over four out of five
of the mothers and children in the
country in case the family bread-
winner should die under any cir-
cumstances.

John Ely Burchnrd, dean of hu-
manities and social studies at the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology, was the speaker for the
third Winchester Morning on
Thursday, November 12th, at the
Music Hall.
Discussing liberal education, he
said there are four major problems
facing American education today.
First he urged that more attention
he given to the gifted child. Far
too often, under our present sys-
tem, the talented child is in danger
of succumbing to boredom. Our ed-
ucational system should make pro-
visions for his fullest development.
Next, he discussed mass education,
and the tremendous problem of
providing adequately for the vari-
ous aims of the increasing number
of students enrolled in our colleges,
lie mentioned the difficulty of se-
curing qualified teachers, especially
in such subjects as English and
History. The third point stressed
by Mr. Burchard was the overem-
phasis on the desire for security
which is characteristic of present
day American society. He cited the
tendency to consider certain pro-
fessions, such as science and en-
gineering, as useful, while others,
for example, literature and art, are
useless. This selective choice of
useful people, he believes, presents
a threat to democracy. Finally, he
I spoke of the specialists themselves,
and what we should ask of them
beyond their specialties. He warned
, of the danger of looking to scien-
1 tists for solutions of problems out-
side their field.
Mr. Burchnrd’s lucid analysis of
these educational problems, high-
lighted by apt references to litera-
ture and the arts, history ami phi-
losophy, as well as by delightful
anecdotes from his own experience,
provided his audience with a most
stimulating and thought-provoking
lecture.
This was the final program of
the sixth annual series of Winches-
ter Mornings, sponsored by the
Winchester Wellesley Club for the
benefit of the Wellesley College
Development Fund and the Win-
chester Scholarship Foundation.
Mrs. Peter Laban was chairman of
the Mornings. She was assisted by
Mrs. Richard Jordan, ticket chair-
man, Mrs. Arthur Rogde, social
chairman, Mrs. Albert Swazey,
arrangement, and also Mrs. Wayne
Davis, Miss Loretta Carleton, Mrs.
Lindsey Caldwell and Mr? Thomas
Halloran.
Mrs. Samuel Kirkwood was re-
sponsible for the lovely flower ar-
rangements for the Mornings.
Artist Arthur R. Herrick of Arlington displays his wutcrcolors
which will be reproduced on place mats to be sold by the State Federa-
tion of Women’s Clubs to restore trees destroyed by the tornado in the
Worcester disaster area. The Fortnightly is represented in the drive by
Miss Louise Bancroft of 525 Washington street and Mrs. Warren (’.
Whitman of 30 Prospect street, as Fortnightly members of the State
Drive Committee. Shown with Mr. Herrick above are Mrs. Myron A.
Holmes of Greenwood (left), director of the Federation’s local (1th
District; and Mrs. William M. M unroe of Melrose (right), Federation
clerk.
GEORGE WASHINGTON SCHOOL
FIFTH GRADE TEA
Ruth Munro, manager of the Sil-
ver Slipper, is reported resting
comfortably after an operation at
the Winchester Hospital. She ex-
pects to return in three weeks.
Mrs. Herbert D. Thompson of 24
Fells road was hostess to the fifth
grade mothers and teachers on
Tuesday, November 17th.
The informal gathering at the
tea table, where Mrs. George M.
Neville and Mrs. John F. Coakley
poured, was followed by a discus-
sion of the subjects covered in fifth
grade work.
Miss Leonor Rich greeted the
mothers and asked that they feel
free to have any phase of the curri-
culum clarified. Mr. Nault and
Mrs. Thompson, the teachers, then
explained Language and Social
Studies, with special emphasis
placed on the integration of all
materials presented to the students.
Arrangements for the tea were
made by Mrs. Arthur Cann and
Mrs. Herbert D. Thompson, the
mothers, assisted by Mrs. Alphonse
Lambiase, Mrs. Robert L. Low,

S. Swift, Mrs. Kenneth Cady, and

On November 14, 1963, the Third
Annual Company-Union Banquet of
the Massachusetts Gear & Tool
Company of Woburn and the United
Steelworkers of America, CTO, Lo-
cal Union 3829, was held at the
Andover Country Club.
Table decorations were center-
pieces of colorful seasonal flowers.
A fellowship hour was followed by
dinner, a brief head table program,
entertainment and dancing.
The following “Welcoming Mes-
sage” was extended jointly by John
H. Lyman, President of Mass. Gear,
and Robert M. Gail, President of
Local 3829:
“It is a pleasure once again to
welcome all the employees and their
guests to this the Third Annual
Company-Union Banquet. A spe-
cial welcome to employees and
guests, who are attending for the
first time. We hope that everyone
will have a most enjoyable eve-
ning.”
Mr. Lyman acted as master of
ceremonies and introduced Mr.
Joseph Cavicchi, Chairman of the
Board and Treasurer of Mass. Gear
who spoke very briefly.
Mr. Lyman stated that in view of
Union Business elsewhere, neither
of the invited representatives of
the United Steelworkers of Amer-
ica, CIO could be present.
In recognition of their efforts in
the company’s behalf, service pins
were again presented to those em-
ployees who have been with the
company for ten, fifteen and twen-
ty-five years. This year there were
no employees to reach the in-be-
tween 20-year mark.
The well-known comedian, Wal-
ter Flaherty, of Watertown, was
introduced from the head table as
an eminent atomic expert, and after
his entertaining antics, music was
furnished for dancing until mid-
night by Roland Russell and his or-
chestra.
In the “Did-ja-kno” column, “did-
ja-kno” that our vice-president Mrs.
Ray Harding, of 24 Hancock street,
fell and broke her ankle? She is
now getting around, although still
“cast”, on spunk and crutches. How
about letting her know how much
we appreciate her efforts in our
organization by means of a per
sonal message?

Council.
Governor’s Councillor Williams
told interestingly of the closing of
Cushing Hospital in Framingham.
He laid emphasis on the typo and
quality of the buildings, the beauty
of the location and it’s easy acces-
sibility. He stated that no Depart-
ment of the Federal Government
apparently has a use for it.
Williams further called the at- :
tention of the Council to the fact j
that the only Soldiers’ Home in
New England, — that is the only
home for the aged or indigent vet-
erans maintained by the Federal
Government, is the home at Togus, j
Maine. He firmly believes that
with the closing of Cushing Hos- ]
pital the time is ripe for the Fed-
eral Government to convert it into
another Soldiers’ Home. He point-
ed out that wars are produced by
Government and therefore it is the
responsibility of Government to
provide proper facilities for the
aged and indigent veterans of those
wars.
He made a motion that the Coun-
cil call upon the Federal Govern-
ment to create such a Home at
Cushing Hospital. The motion was
seconded by Past Commander
Joseph Dineen and passed. This
motion will travel through the
proper Legion channels and finally
reach the Congress.
Following the meeting a fine col-
lation was served by the host Post
and Legionnaires leaving for home
felt that a lot of fine work was ac-
complished at this meeting. The
next meeting of the Council will he
on Sunday, January 10, 1954, at
Sullivan Post No. 358 in Cambridge.

HARRIERS CONCLUDE SEASON
WITH DIVISIONAL
AND LEAGUE RACES
The local cross-country runners
concluded their regular season with
the Pilgrim Divisional title race at
Essex Agricultural School in Dan-
vers and the MCCL Championship
at Tufts College.
At Danvers the long-expected
duel between Lou Farrell and Peter
Schwarz took place. The race was
run in a driving rainstorm but it
did not seem to hamper the leaders
a bit. Schwarz jumped away to an
early lead, with Lou and Dave ('ha-
pin on his heels. This order pre-
vailed until about Vi mile from the
finish, when Lou Farrell pulled into
a five-yard lead. As they entered
the track with about 300 yards to
go Lou increased the lead to 8
yards and seemingly had victory in
his grasp, hut 20 yards from the i
finish Schwarz made a final bid ,
t hat caused Lou to break his stride, |
which gave the victory to the!
Wakefield runner by 4 yards in the
record-breaking time of 13:58:6.
Lou pulled into second a scant yard
over the fast-closing Dave Chapin.
('apt. John Becker moved up in
the closing stages to take 6th. The
team scoring was completed by
Dick Borggaard in 20th, Bob Beck-
er in 22nd, and Hank Morgan in
30th. The team total placed Win- j
Chester in 3rd place behind Wake-
field and Wellesley.
In the Junior Varsity race Boh
Smith, fast-improving sophomore,
took an early lead which he held
until midway in the race when he
took a wrong turn which added
about 100 yards. This error cost
him a victory, as he finished third
about 75 yards behind Rizza of
Wakefield, the winner. Paul Fran-
son, a sophomore, also finished a
strong 7th. Jon McCarthy in 9th,
Bert Kneeland 12th, and Freshman
Bob Dauphnais, 20th, completed
the scoring to give Winchester the
runner-up spot behind Wakefield.
STAFF AND KEY
On Thursday, November twelfth,
the Winchester Staff and Key So-
ciety held a meeting at the home of
Mr. Francis J. Mardulicr to make
plans for their next musical.
During the meeting a music com-
mittee was appointed by the presid-
ing officer, Miss Virginia McPart-
land, to select the musical show to
be produced. The music committee
will be presided over by Dr. F.
Milne Blanchard, Chairman, who is
well known for his excellent per-
formances with The Parish Players
as well as The Staff and Key. Dr.
Blanchard will be assisted by Mrs.
Lucy Cushman, Winchester piano
teacher and accompanist for the so-
ciety and Mr. Hasslar Einzig, Head
of the Music Department in the
Arlington public schools and the
director for the past performances
of Staff and Key. Mr. Einzig has
also directed several Gilbert and
Sullivan operettas for Wheelock
College and is at present directing
“Iolanthe” for the Peabody Play
House Operetta Company.
It was also decided that Staff and
Key will again assemble this holi-
day season to sing Christmas
Carols at the Winchester Hospital,
the Winchester Home for the Aged
and to any known “shut-ins”. The
Society will he happy to receive the
names of any “shut-ins” who would
enjoy having the group sing out-
side their homes. The tentative
date for this event has been set for
December twenty-first. If, as hap-
pened last year, the weather should
he too inclement, the carolers will
gather on December twenty-second
instead. After the carols the mem-
bers will gather together for a
Christmas party at 37 Woodside
road.
After the business meeting re-
freshments were served and the
new members were given an oppor-
tunity to become better acquainted
with the organization and its mem-
bers.
LOU FARRELL CAPTURES
STATE HARRIER TITLE
Lou Farrell, local Red nnd Black
runner, raced to the State Class D
championship on November 11.
This race, postponed from the
previous Saturday because of the
storm, proved to he the most hotly
contested of the four classes. At
the outset of the race Don Luisi of
Rockland, Dave Chapin of Welles-
ley and Lou Farrell jumped into
the lead. They soon put a rather
wide margin between themselves
and the other runners and it be-
came evident that the race was go-
ing to he close. At the mile and one
half the three were running shoul- ;
der to shoulder and this condition
continued until they entered the
final 6)0 yards. At this point Luisi
took a five yard lead, with Lou and j
Chapin evenly positioned behind. ■
The pace then steped up and ('ha-
pin faltered, leaving the race to the 1
other two. Lou began to put on the
pressure nnd moved up stride for
stride with the leader. The next
300 yards found less than a yard
separating the pair. With less than
150 yards to go Lou made his bid
and poured it on. Luisi matched
him for 50 yards and then faded
ns the Red and Black speedster
finished with a 10-yard lead in the
second fastest time of the day,
13:26:2.
This victory was a fitting climax
to two years of brilliant running
for Lou, which includes 13 dual-
meet wins in 14 races, a Pilgrim
Divisional individual crown, and a
record holder on three of the cross-
country courses in the MCCL as
well as the record holder on the
local course. As Lou is only a jun-
ior perhaps even greater laurels
may be waiting next year.
Lou’s victory also qualified him
for the New England Cross Coun-
try Championships which was run
last Saturday, lie is the first local
runner to be selected for this hon-
or. He was competing against the
top runners from all over New
England. Over 180 runners left the
mark in this race and Lou finished
18th in what proved to be the fast-
est races of the season.
Other local Harriers also finished
well in the state meet, with Capt.
John Becker running a fine race to
capture the 6th spot and rapidly-
improving sophomore Bob Becker
finishing strongly to capture 11th.
Dick Borggaard was 29th and an-
other sophomore, Bob Smith, with
definite future potential, took 32nd
to complete Winchester’s scoring.
The team total gave Winchester
3rd place behind Rockland and Wo-
burn in the 17-school race.
W. S. C. S.
At the regular meeting of the
women of the Crawford Memorial
Methodist Church on November 12,
final plans were discussed for the
coming Christmas Fair, Friday, De-
cember 4th. Articles for sale are
nearly completed and the luncheon
and dinner committees are at work.
A large group listened with in-
terest, when Mrs. Alonzo D. Nichol-
as gave a fascinating report of her
visit to nine European countries,
displaying pictures and samples of
native craft, including laces, pot-
tery, glass, china and leather work.
Dessert was served by the Hill-
side Group, Mrs. Arthur C. Fay,
chairman. Mrs. Donald R. Wilkins
led the devotions. The society
voted to contribute to the red
feather campaign and members
brought generous donations for the
work of the Cooper Community
Center in Roxbury.
FARRELL THIRD AT TUFTS
The last regularly scheduled
meet of the year was the MCCL
Championships held at Tufts Col-
lege.
This race brought together 14
teams and at least 10 top individual
runners.
In the Varsity race 95 runners
faced the starting gun. The first
half mile saw Bob Dias of Melrose
take the lead, with Burns of Bever-
ly second and Lou Farrell, third.
These positions were maintained
throughout the race, with Dias win-
ning in the excellent time of 13:03.
Lou made a bid to take second from
Burns but fell one stride short.
John Becker, local team captain,
running his best race of the season
finished a strong sixth. The team
scoring found Bob Becker in 21st,
Borggaard, 50th, and Morgan, 56th,
to give Winchester a point total of
136. This total place the Red and
Black in 6th place, with Wakefield
taking the League title by one point
over Melrose.
The Junior Varsity race found
the local team in the second spot,
with Melrose the victor. The team
scores for Winchester were Char-
lie Govostes, 10th, Boh Smith, 13th,
Raul Franson, 15th, Bert Kneeland,
27th, and Don Palladino, 44th.
JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP
The second bi-monthly meeting
of November held at the Unitarian
Church on Sunday the 15th was
highlighted by the presence of Mrs.
Kenneth Toye, regional director of
the Military Manpower Commis-
sion, who talked to an attentive
group of hoys and girls about a
number of aspects related to choos-
ing a military life as a vocation.
She answered many questions pre
sen ted by the group with patience
and directness, among other things
emphasizing the seriousness need
for high scholarship and a com
plete secondary school education as
a prerequisite to a successful mili-
tary life.
A group of junior hi-ers from the
Unitarian Church in Concord were
guests at the meeting, which ended
with games and refreshments.

CUSACK BADLY INJURED
STAR Rt’ARn BREAKS I.EG IN
W AKKKlKl.il GAME
Jim Cusack, son of Selectman
and Mrs. William C. Cusack of
Lakeview road, who sustained a
badly broken right leg in the Win-
choster-Wakefield football game
last Saturday afternoon at Wake-
field, was reported the first of the
week at the Winchester Hospital
ns getting along nicely.
Jim, outstanding lineman of this
year's team and a two-year veteran
of the line wars, was injured
toward the end of the second period
when a Wakefield hoy threw a ter-
rific block on his right leg as
Cusack wns running laterally in an
attempt to tackle the Wakefield hall
carrier. Witnesses, who know foot-
ball and saw the block, felt it was
legitimate and not a clip, Jim’s
weight being on his right leg and
thus preventing his cleats from
giving when the block was thrown.
It could immediately he seen that
Cusack was Imdly hurt, and after
examination by Team Physician
William D. Barone lie was placed
on a stretcher by the Wakefield Po-
lice and taken to the Winchester
Hospital in the Wakefield ambu-
lance, which is stationed at the
Wakefield field each Saturday there
is a football game there.
Mr. Cusack accompanied his son
to the hospital and Mrs. Cusack,
who was also at the game, her first
after her recent operation, was
driven to the hospital by Mrs.
Philip Woodward, chairman of the
School Committee.
Meanwhile Dr. Barone had tele-
phoned ahead nnd when the in-
jured hoy arrived at the hospital
Dr. H. K. Magill, an orthopedic
physician and Dr. Wiliam F. Hic-
key, Jr., surgeon, were ready to
work upon him immediately. It
was found that Jim had a compound
fracture of both the tibia and fibula
bones of the right leg above the
ankle.
Unless unforeseen complications
arise the physicians believe that
there will he no permanent ill
effects of the injury, which threw a
pall over the big crowd, both on the
Wakefield and Winchester sides of
the field.
At the hospital Jim’s principal
concern was the progress of the
game, and when he finally learned
that Winchester had won beyond
doubt the star guard was happy
despite his discomfort. His chief
worry now is missing the Woburn
game and his natural disappoint-
ment is shared by all Winchester
fans who have appreciated Jim’s
sterling play in the center of the
Indians' line.

We would like to make a few
comments, about a team whose
name alone is known throughout
the world. A name who deserves a
better standing than it hns, Har-
vard. Some of the reasons of the
dull effort can he traced to the fol-
lowing conditions. Their key man
(Sammy) has the worry of paying
for his new car. “Wedding Bells
Boh” need I say more. “M. J. S.”
a good bowler thnt I can’t figure
why he’s not doing better. Paul
whose wonderful effort nnd co-
operation in the howling records
deserves a better place in the
standings. M. D. S. this man 1 as
a lot on his mind and also he can’t
bend at the knees so we suggest a
little dieting would help. Last hut
not least “The President”, “Treas-
urer”, “Recording Secretary”, “The
Driver”, and delivery man of the
“Star Lumber Co.”, “Sir Leroy
Penta” who finally hit a 300 score.
Whispering heard around the
alleys. “What happened to last
year’s Champ? Does the feud be-
tween “Curly Locks Chick” and
“Prayer Mingy” continuing this
year? Will Ben ever miss hitting
the rubber? Has the boss any old
clothes? Will the Gypsy ever
stop asking for quarters?
We wish to thank publicly Mike
for the keg of Ginger Ale.
The winner of this week’s “Cres-
cent Star” raffle was won by a man
well regarded in all walks of life.
Some of his past and present posi-
tions are as follows. S. O. I. ven-
erable, many times at present he
is president of the A. C. A. or-
ganization, commissioner of howl-
ing, assistant chairman of the
building committee, superintendent
of refuge and sanitation, delegate
to the S. O. I Grand Lodge all over
the country and many other posi-
tions too numerous to mention. He
is at present behind one of the most
powerful machines in this town.
You may already have guessed
“His Honor Sir Carmen Frongillo”.
See you next week.

TOWN MEETING SUPPORTED
SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE
(Continued from Pagj 1)
Mr. Greer stated in this connec-
tion that the entire cost of land
takings for the school would be
$42,000, adding a few dollars for
odds and ends.
The meeting voted $48 from the
Excess and Deficiency Account to
reimburse L. P. Yale for medical
expenses resulting from an injury
to his daughter at the Wadleigh
school May 9, 1962. It was ex-
plained at the March meeting that
Mr. Yale’s daughter had broken
through a floor ventilator at the
school, and that until an enabling
act of Legislature was passed the
town could not appropriate money
to reimburse him for medical ex-
penses incurred.
Mr. Crockett reported at some
length for the Personnel Board
which is still engaged in setting up
an adequate wage schedule for the
town. Using grafs, he explained
the wage differential and told how
his committee had arrived at the
wage schedule they recommended.
He told of the difficulty encount-
ered by the committee, of the time
its members have spent in confer-
ence with town department heads
and the town accountant and of
their good fortune in acquiring the
services of an expert in the field of
job evaluation whose assistance has
proven invaluable.
Mr. Crockett stressed the fact
that in arriving at its wage sched-
ule the committee had considered
jobs and not individuals, and that
its plan is an attempt at positive
job evaluation by an expert so as
to establish an adequate wage
scale.
He made clear that his remarks
at the meeting were an interim re-
port, and expressed the hope that
before the Personnel Committeee
concludes its study of the problem
a wage scale will have been worked
out of which the town can be proud.
Mr. Crockett stated in reply to a
question that the wage scale of
which he spoke at Monday’s meet-
ing did not include any cost of liv-
ing money, but did explain how such
a cost of living increase could be
applied to two random wage units
taken for demonstration. He also
recommended that the town have
a permanent Personnel Board to
correlate and keep up to date wage
and hour schedules for public em-
ployees.
Two motions introduced by the
Personnel Committee were passed
by the meeting, without opposition,
both the Selectmen and Finance
Committee voicing approval.
The first was that the Wage and
Salary Guide as published by the
Finance Committee in 1950, and as
later amended, be further amended
by making the changes and addi-
tions herein stated:
Article 6 was inserted in the war-
rant to see if the town would appro-
priate money from the Excess and
Deficiency Account to install a new
water system at Palmer Play-
ground to improved the playing
condition of the tennis court there.
The sum of $2,000 was originally
asked for this article, hut upon the
motion of the Finance Committee
action upon it was indefinitely post-
poned. Mr. Redding told the meet-
ing the funds would not be neces-
sary to effect the needed water im-
provement at the tennis courts
since the Water Department had
agreed to furnish the necessary
pipe for the installation with the
Park Department supplying the
labor.
The meeting voted to authorize
the Water and Sewer Board to
transfer $4,000 from the personal
services in the Water Department
construction account to personal
services in the Water Department
maintenance account, and also the
transfer of $2,500 from the personal
services in the Sewer Department
construction account to personal
services in the Sewer Department
maintenance account.
Mr. Dwinell explained in this con-
nection that the Board in estimat-
ing the amounts needed for per-
sonal services at the beginning of
the year had overestimated the
amount necessary for construction
in both the Water and Sewer De-
partments and underestimated the
amount necessary for maintenance.
Mr. Greer explained the request
of the Selectmen for authority to
add a new police officer to the de-
partment, explaining that the great
increase in motor traffic makes one
or two new officers necessary for
traffic law enforcement.
The new officer asked for would
he the beginning of a local traffic
department and will devote his en-
tire time to traffic enforcement, the
Board considering also the appoint-
ment of a new sergeant to devote a
part of his time solely to traffic.
The sum of $3,068 to be taken
from the long suffering Excess and
Deficiency Account was asked for
the expense of the new officer, and
after the Finance Committee flash-
ed the green light, the sum was
voted.
Under Article 9 the sum of $215
was asked to be transferred from
Excess and Deficiency to make it
possible for the clerk now working
part time in the Accountant’s de-
partment to become a full time
clerk at a salary of $2,000. Mr.
Greer and Mr. Redding argued the
necessity for the full time clerk to
relieve the accountant of routine
work so that he can devote more
time to the analytical work needed
to assist department heads and
committees such as the Personnel
Committee.
The meeting voted the money and
also voted to accept the provisions
of the General Laws permitting
town officers and employees to be
paid for their vacation before they
lenve to enjoy it.
The supposedly controversial ar-
ticle dealing with more stringent
regulation of the removal of soil
from private property was referred
to a committee of three to be ap-
pointed by the moderator to study
the proposed new law and make
recommendations at a subsequent
town meeting.
The article dealing with rent con-
trol was indefinitely postponed upon
the recommendation of the Select-
men, Mr. Greer feeling that from
the Board’s experience there is lit-
tle call for rent control in Win-
chester at present. The Selectmen
do feel, however, if the action on
control is indefinitely postponed, it
can he brought up for action at any
time should there he evidence of
abuse on the part of landlords.
Mr. Hewis made the actual mo-
tion for postponement, and after
it had been carried the meeting was
dissolved at 10:55 p. m.
CARL PIHL COMMISSIONED
Carl Pihl received last Friday
the comission of Ensign of the
Line at Newport Naval Station,
Newport, R. I. He has been ordered
to report in New York City, where
he will he stationed for the next
18 months.
Carl graduated from the Holder-
ness School, Plymouth, N. H.,
where he was a 9-letter athlete,
distinguishing himself in football,
hockey and baseball. After a post-
graduate year at the Browne &
Nichols School in Cambridge, he
spent two years at Kenyon College,
Gambier, Ohio, where he again re-
ceived varsity sports letters.
Transferring to the University
of Vermont as a pre-medical stu-
dent, Carl’s interest in skiing was
intensified and he again distin-
guished himself there as a skier.
He received his B. A. degree
from the University of Vermont
last June and entered the Officers’
Candidate School at Newport, R.I.,
last July. He was in the 13th class
to be graduated from the school,
and on Friday, November the 13th!

M. S. P. C. A.
A very well attended meeting
was held Thursday, November 12th,
at the home of Miss Mary A. Fitch,
14 Sheffield West.
After the business meeting we
were addressed by Mr. John C.
Macfarlane who is the director of
New England Livestock Conserva-
tion Inc., the office being at 180
Longwood avenue, Boston, the
M. S. P. C. A. building.
He told us about the great need
for improved equipment and better
handling methods for livestock in
our region, and said that consider-
able advance has been made in the
Brighton stock yards.
“When livestock bruises, every-
body loses”, is his slogan.
Many old cows are taken to the
market in trucks with sharp nails
sticking out, as the trucks swerve
the unfortunate animals are bruised
by the nails even through their
hides. After a long life giving
calves and milk for people they are
sold to make frankforts as the meat
is too inferior for other use.
Ignorance and thoughtlessness
are responsible for most of the suf-
fering of our food animals. They
are kicked and beaten and prodded
by rods which give electric shocks,
as they are being loaded and un-
loaded and hurried beyond reason.
Money is constantly needed to
carry on the human education so
urgently needed in our rural areas.
Much better methods of transpor-
tation have been devised, so that
the loss by bruises will not he so
great. The result of bruised ani-
mals, cows, calves, pigs and lambs,
is poorer quality meat and less
money for the one who has raised
them.
It is important to teach the far-
mers particularly boys in 4H clubs,
and other groups, the better
methods.
A very delicious tea was served
by our cordial hostess.

MRS. DORIS GODDU MclEOD
Mrs. Doris Goddu McLeod of
Falmouth, a native and former resi-
dent of Winchester, died suddenly
Monday morning at the Falmouth
Hospital, to which she was taken
after suffering a heart attack earli-
er in the morning at her home. She
had been in her usual health over the
week-end and on Saturday had
done some Christmas shopping, her
sudden death coming as a severe
shock to her family and friends.
Mrs. McLeod was the daughter
of William, and Florence (Schaef-
fer) Goddu. She was born in Win-
chester July 27, 1892, and grew up
in town in the homestead built for
her father at the corner of Chest-
nut street and Goddu avenue by her
grandfather, the late Louis Goddu.
She attended the Winchester
schools and was graduated from
Winchester High School in the class
of 1911, being a member of the then
girls’ sorority, Sigma Beta.
Mrs. McLeod made her home in
Winchester until 1938 and was a
member of the Winchester Choral
Society during its existence sev-
eral years ago. She took up resi-
dence in Randall, Vt., in 1938 and
lived there until 1949 when she
went to Falmouth and became as-
sistant librarian of the public
library there, holding this position
until her death. She was well and
favorably known in Falmouth, hav-
ing made many friends during her
residence there.
Mrs. McLeod leaves two daugh-
ters, Mrs. Vemer Anderson of
Lunenberg and Mrs. Burton W.
Cary, Jr., of Manlius, N. Y.
Funeral services were held in
Winchester Wednesday afternoon,
at Meyer Chapel of the Unitarian
Church with the minister, Rev.
Robert A. Storer, officiating. Bu-
rial was in the Goddu family lot in
Wildwood Cemetery.

ALLEN LANNOM
TO CONDUCT MYSTIC 6LEE CLUB
The 14th annual Winter Concert
of the Mystic Glee Club to be held
on Saturday evening, December 12,
in the Winchester High School Au-
ditorium, will be directed by the
club’s popular and dynamic con-
ductor, Allen Lannom.
A native Californian, widely
known for his work on the West
Coast. Mr. Lannom came to New
England several years ago to be-
come associate professor of church
and choral music at Boston Univer-
sity.
Last year, his first with the club,
he demonstrated his fine musician-
ship and expert knowledge of en-
semble in directing the club in its
prize-winning performance at the
annual contest of the New England
Federation of Men’s Glee Clubs.
This feat, together with the fact
that last year’s experience hus giv-
en both the club and director a bet-
ter understanding of each other,
indicates that the coming concert
should be a high point in the club’s
history.
Your Star reporter ran into Don
Greer at the Town Hall Wednesday
; and found the usually genial chair-
man of the Board of Selectmen,
pretty well steamed up over an
; article appearing in last week’s
Star reporting that several new
I plans for the elimination of the
j grade crossing by means other than
the overpass had recently come to
light.
Mr. Greer was very emphatic
in denying that any new plans had
come to the attention of the Board
and felt that the article in the Star
put the Selectmen in a bad light
through implication, conveying the
idea that they had not known all
the facts in connection with a mat-
ter on which the town was voting
the day the announcement of new
plans appeared in the Star.
Don did admit that wherever two
interested people had gotten to-
gether to discuss the overhead new
plans had been born, but that these
plans have been in form to merit
consideration he questioned, and
that they had ever been presented
to the Board for study he denied.
The Star surely hod no intention
of putting the Selectmen in a false
position and we have for a long,
long time known the Board’s atti-
tude on the elimination of the grade
crossing in the square. They have
made their position very clear!
The article was given us by a citizen
opposed to the overhead who asked
us to publish it to let the public
know that opponents were even
then attempting to find an alter-
nate solution.
The idea seemed to be that in the
event the referendum did not sup-
port the overhead plan the town
might know that there would be
other plans forthcoming. We knew
nothing more than that, and had
nothing more sinister in mind.
NURSERY PLANNED
LEAF COLLECTION
RECEIVED B. A. DEGREE
Mr. Brownell, church school su-
perintendent of the Second Congre-
gational Church, wishes to an-
nounce that a nursery will be held
during the Sunday morning ser-
vices each week. Parents are invit-
ed to leave their children in the
care of capable attendants while
they are at church.
It is the desire of the pastor, Mr.
Skeirik, that this new arrangement
will encourage more parents to at-
tend church together.
Mrs. Cruwys and her nursery
class will be using this room during
the Sunday school hour.
The Nursery is located in the far
end of the basement. Appropriate
signs will be displayed for your
convenience.
STRUCK WITH B. B. SLUGS
David Boston Hahn, son of Dr.
T. M. Ilahn of 9 Symmes road,
was awarded the Bachelor of Arts
degree in Government with a major
in statistics during Fall Convoca-
tion Exercises of The George Wash-
ington University in Washington,
D. C. .
Mr. Hahn completed Junior Col-
lege at Canal Zone Junior College
in 1951.
“Al” Lambiase, Edison Light
employee, had an unpleasant expe-
rience Monday night while chang-
ing a street light at Fletcher and
Copley streets.
| While on a ladder engaged in the
job he was struck in the chest by
two slugs from an air rille, the pel-
lets lodging in the sweater he was
wearing. Fortunately the slugs
were not fired higher or they eould
easily have struck Mr. Lambiase
in the eyes.
He reported the matter to the
police, stating that from his posi-
tion on the ladder he though the
shots came from the direction of
Fletcher street.
A CHANCE TO HELP
Many elderly and infirm persons, as well as those with small
children and limited incomes, need help at Thanksgiving and
Christmas if these holidays are to be happy occasions in accord-
ance with the American tradition.
To help our less fortunate Winchester friends during the
holiday season gifts of money, coal, food and clothing are earnestly
solicited.
(lifts may be sent to the Winchester Community Relief
Committee.

There appears to be some mis-
understanding in the town as to the
use of the town-owned and-operated
leaf collectors.
These large machines which act
like oversized vacuum cleaners do
an excellent job of removing leaves,
particularly when dry. They have
been of great value to the street
department in speeding up this
operation and facilitating the dis-
posal of the leaves.
Many Winchester landowners,
seeing the ease with which this de-
vice is clearing the gutters of
leaves, have adopted the practice of
raking all the leaves from their
property into the streets. This has
multiplied the work of the leaf col-
lecting crews manyfold.
This equipment was purchased to
take care of the leaves that normal-
ly fall into the public ways. The
two leaf collectors the town owns
are barely adequate to keep up with
this work. If property owners con-
tinue to add to the burden by plac-
ing their own leaves in the public
ways it is obvious that the town’s
equipment cannot hope to collect
all the leaves before snow flies.
It is doubtful that the town will
buy as many additional leaf collec-
tors as would be required to collect
everyone’s leaves.
Furthermore, the placing of
leaves and other such material in
the streets from private properties
is illegal according to Article III,
section 6 of the General By-laws
of the Town.
The attention of all residents is
called to this practice which should
he discontinued immediately.

OPEN HOUSE AT CALIDYNE
The Calidyne Company, one of
Winchester’s new businesses, held
open house all last week at their
fine new plant at 120 Cross street
near the railroad bridge. Custom-
ers and sules representatives, the
people who actually deal with Cali-
dyne, were entertained during the
first three days of the week, and
were absorbed in the various steps
and processes that go into the ma-
chines they buy.
Thursday evening the company
was host to its employees and their
families and friends, and last Fri-
day afternoon from 4:30 until 6
o’clock local businessmen and non-
business friends of the company
were shown through the plant.
Several hundred enjoyed the
company’s hospitality, and a de-
licious buffet luncheon waiting for
the guests after they had made the
round of the plant. The young
ladies of the office staff with color-
ful corsages met the guests as they
entered and after signing the guest
book, the visitors, in small groups,
picked up a company employee
serving as guide and began their
tour, going first through the draft-
ing rooms and from there to the
machine and assembling rooms, the
winding room, power plant, ship-
ping and receiving room, coordinat-
ing room and back to the general
offices and private offices of the
company owners, Robert C. Lewis
of 41 Wildwood street, Thomas
Gouzoule of 108 Arlington street,
and Philip C. Efromson of 22 Hill-
side avenue. L. W. Kelpley of
Waltham is plant manager.
A lay man, such as your Star
reporter, was more or less mysti-
fied by such machines as breakers,
shearers, shapers and vibrators,
one of which was by means of
vibration actually playing music
while making it possible for the
listener to see the sound delcibels
going up and down, now showing
faintly, now sharply, in a small red
finder.
Even a layman can appreciate
the precision work done in the
clean, attractively laid-out plant,
the fine mill work and the individ-
ual assembling of the attractive
consoles and chassis with their
mystifying dials and controls. Here
are machines that measure the
vibration of airplane wings before
they are sent into the air, there are
other machines used in the new
radar field. Some are made for
the government, others for those
who produce for the government.
Everywhere is evidence of rigid
precision.
Aside from care-takers and
janitors, there is no unskilled labor
at Calidyne, and many of the em-
ployees have engineering degrees
from leading universities and
technical schools. They were
present on Friday and busy
answering the questions of the
more technically erudite of the
visitors.
While your Star reporter was
there he saw many familiar faces,
including Dr. Nelson Fontneau,
who knew a surprising lot about
the various machines in the shop;
Horace Ford of Horace Ford’s res-
taurant, Chief Charles J. Harrold
of the Police Department, Select-
men William C. Cusack and J.
Joseph Tansey, former Selectman
Harry Chefalo, local plumbing
contractor; Vin Ambrose of Win-
chester Trust Company, Billy Sul-
livan of the Winchester National
Bank, Jack Chitel of ChitePs Men’s
Shop, and his father-in-law, Sam
Alman, Don Simonds of Don-0
products and Ted Burleigh, also
Walter and Mrs. Hawkes. Others
were coming and going all the time.
So many have asked what Cali-
dyne is that we print below:
“The Calidyne Story”
The Beginning
It started with an idea. And, in
January 1948, Robert C. Lewis and
Philip C. Efromson formed a
partnership to design, manufacture
and sell electro-dynamic instru-
ments to he used for vibration-
testing of industrial, military and
commercial products. Some six
months luter, Thomas Gouzoule
joined forces with Lewis and
Efromson to complete the partner-
ship as it exists today.
The Name
It is claimed that “Calidyne” is
a coined word pulled out of thin
air. But, its implications combine
the words “Calibrate” and “dy-
j namics.” From this the inference
j can be drawn that it means the
| “measurement of a dynamic force”
! such as Vibration.
Early Years
For many months, Calidyne had
no employees. The partners did all
the work including engineering,
purchasing, manufacturing and
; selling. But, by January I960, two
; years later, two machinists, a
stenographer and a part-time elec-
trical technician were on the pay-
roll. The “plant” consisted of a
small part of an old garage at 751
Main street in Winchester. The
first machine tool was a second-
hand bench milling machine.

REFERENDUM VOTE BY PRECINCTS
Elimination of Grade Crossing in the Centro
and Construction of n Tra flic Bypass
SURVEYORS
AT SWANTON STREET
As a result of the hearing the
Board of Selectmen conducted with
residents of the Swanton street
area shortly after the town meeting
of October 22nd at which the grade
crossing project was approved, the
Selectmen made* certain sugges-
tions and recommendations to the
State Department of Public Works.
Commissioner Volpe hus instruct-
ed the engineers to make further
studies of the areu. Surveyors
were on the job this week getting
additional information. It is hoped
that the data they are securing may
make it possible to develop a plan
of access roads which will be more
convenient for the residents of the
area. The Selectmen, the Depart-
ment of Public Works and the con-
sulting engineers are continuing to
work on this problem.

OVERHEAD VOTED
REFERENDUM SUPPORTED
LIMITED TOWN MEETING
MESSIAH TO BE PRESENTED
By a vote of 2,982 to 2,109 the
referendum election held last Fri-
day, supported the members of the
limited town meeting, held October
22, when it was voted 143 to 23, to
approve the overhead tracks plan
for the elimination of the grade
crossing und to authorize the Se-
lectmen, or chairman of the Board
of Selectmen, to enter into definite
agreements with the State Depart-
ment of Public Works and any other
parties in interest which will bring
about the elimination of the grade
crossing and provide therewith a
traffic bypass around the center;
and to appropriate $190,000 as the
town’s entire share of the expense
of the project.
This is the second referendum
held on the overhead plan for the
elimination of the grade crossing,
a previous one having been held in
April of 1952. At that time the
overhead plan won out 3,120 to
1,742, the referendum supporting
the action of the March* town meet-
ing. the members of which voted
for the overhead 151 to 1.
Last Friday’s referendum shows
a loss in votes for the overhead of
138 and a gain of 367 for those op-
posing the plan. The total vote
this time was larger, 5,096 going to
the polls last Friday and 4,862 in
April, 1952. In that year slightly
more than 54 percent of the 9,000
voters expressed their preference,
and this year’s vote was no better
percentage-wise, in fact it was just
the same, 54 percent plus.
In view of the advance interest,
and the heat of the campaign over
the weeks since the special meeting
in October it does not speak too
well for the voters’ interest in a
major project having a lasting in-
fluence on the future of the town
that only 54 percent of the elect-
orate would take the trouble to
vote.
This year’s campaign was fully
as hot as its predecessor, with
every possible effort being made to
ic*..h the voters, including adver-
tising in the newspapers, telephone
solicitation and the distribution of
pamphlets and flyers to the house-
holders.
The Selectmen had distributed
with the warrants for the referen-
dum a pamphlet explaining the
overhead and giving the reasons
leading them to recommend it to
the town. This was countered by a
flyer fairly widely circulated by
John C. Wakefield, Mrs. Alonzo
Woodside and a group of opponents
of the plan.
The going got pretty heavy
toward the end of the campaign
with each side accusing the other
of misrepresentation and each side
battling hard right up to the very
last minute.
As before, Mrs. Woodside was the
chief leader of the opposition to
the overhead, though this time she
was accorded rather more support
than last year. She faced a hercu-
lean task in opposing the Select-
men, Finance Committee, Planning
Board and a large and prominent
body of former town officials, hut
she and her supporters went down
fighting, and even as late as noon
time on the day of the referendum
advocutes of the overhead were in-
dulging in few very long breaths.
This year’s referendum vote ran
consistently ahead of the vote in
’52, according to Town Clerk Mabel
W. Stinson. Following are the
votes cast by times:
1953 1952
11:30 a. m. 1686 1557
2:45 p. m. 2630 2401
4:45 p. m. 3363 3117
7 :00 p. m. 5096 4869
In another column the referen-
dum vote is given by precincts and
doubtless this tabulation will prove
interesting to those who like to
analyze u vote and see where the
pros and cons are located.
Only two precincts, 1 and 6, had
a majority against the overhead,
and in neither was the majority
heavy, 81 votes in 1 and 32 in 6.
This last majority was a hit sur-
prising as was the 138 majority
for the overhead in Precinct 2, the
Plains precinct, where opposition
to the overhead was said to be
strong.
Sunday, December 13, at four o’-
clock in the Winchester Unitarian
Church, will be the occasion of the
second public performance in Win-
chester of the Christmas section
and the Hallelujah Chorus of Han-
del’s “Messiah”. That will be ex-
actly 211 years and 8 months from
the time of its first performance
anywhere, which happened to be at
a concert in Dublin, Ireland. As
the story goes, Handel wrote this
oratorio — in 24 days, incidentally,
generally considered to be a record
for the course — with a thoughtful
regard for certain distinct limita-
tions in Dublin’s orchestral and
choral resources. The “Messiah”
is not a particularly complex piece.
It has the size and dignity and
melodic beauty which have made it
perhaps the one great classic work
of music automatically connected
with Christmas in the minds of
many people for many years; but
its theme is fundamentally simple
rather than elaborate, philosophical
rather than emotional.
The “Messiah” was a tremendous
popular success from the beginning.
Handel, until his death, brought it
out every year in London to great
applause; it is the work by which
he is most familiarly known to
most of us; and most of us know
about the tradition, presumably
started by King George II of Eng-
land, that the congregation rises
and remains standing through the
Hallelujah Chorus. Also, it has
been the subject of much editing,
re-arranging, and “interpretation”
in vocal and orchestral parts alike,
by Handelian scholars of vast cate-
gory from Mozart to Vincent No-
vello, all doubtless convinced that
they were improving on the ori-
ginal.
However that may be, the ver-
sion to be presented December 13,
by the augmented Winchester Uni-
tarian Choir is authentically re-
ported to be virtually as Handel
originally composed it. The “Mes-
siah” is so traditional an associa-
tion of the Christmas season that
there is no need to emphasize here
that this forthcoming performance
should not be missed.

RAILS AFFECT PLANT DISPERSAL
ADVENT SERIES
Pastor A. John Skeirik of the
Second Congregational Church will
begin his Advent Series this com-
ing Sunday. For Sunday, Novem-
ber 29, Mr. Skeirik will be talking
on the subject of “In Search of a
King.” which will be a modern
parable of life drawn from the
sto v v of* tfio Three Wise Me”.
On Sunday, December 6, the top-
ic will be “The Incarnation.” An
attempt will he made to present
a brief historical explanation of
how this word came into the
Christian History. Then he will
evaluate its meaning to the modern
Christian.
The December 13th topic will be
“In the Beginning,” at which time
Mr. Skeirik will present the spirit-
ual birth of Christ as found in the
Gospel of John.
Christmas Sunday, December 20,
will conclude the Advent Series.
The pastor will consider the true
depth and beauty of Christmas,
pointing to the need of making
this holiday a holy day. The topic
will be “A Mother and a Babe.”
HISTORY OF METHODIST CHURCH
This coming Sunday morning at
the 10:45 a. m. service, Rev. John
Snook, Jr., pastor of the Crawford
Memorial Methodist Church, will
preach on the subject, “Through
the Years.” Part of the source of
the pastor’s material will be taken
from a history of the church, writ-
ten by the late Albert B. Bent, en-
titled “Through the Years.”
Mr. Bent spent literally hundreds
of hours over a period of several
years gathering information for this
fine historical record. The writing of
this history covers over seventy
pages and records valuable infor-
mation of .the progress of the
church from 1871, when the church
had its beginning, through the next
80 years to 1951. The labors and
sacrifices of the members of the
church, resulting in the present
beautiful edifice, tells an interest-
ing story of Christian loyalty.

“The nation’s railroads are tak-
ing a highly important part in the
vast dispersal of industry for de-
fense movement,” an industry
spokesman said in Woburn Wed-
nesday evening, November 18.
Charles P. O’Rourke, Jr., of
Symmes road, former Winchester
High athlete, a member of the
freight traffic department of the
Boston & Maine Railroad, told
members of the Woburn “Y”
Men’s Club how the railroads’
industrial departments help locate
new industries and relocate old
ones.
“One Eastern railroad helped lo-
cate and relocate 336 permanent in-
dustries along its lines in 1952,” he
said.
Mr. O’Rourke spoke under the
auspices of the Railroad Commu-
nity Committee of Greater Boston,
recently organized by the Eastern
Railroad Presidents Conference.
The meeting was held in the Wo-
burn YMCA.
The speaker emphasized the es-
sential nature of the railroads’ par-
ticipation in the industry dispersal
trend. “Many large firms have re-
located with the help of engineers
in our industrial departments,” he
said.
“They not only help choose a
proper location for the firm, but
handle problems of light, power
and other utilities, survey labor
markets and availability of hous-
ing, schools, stores and other nec-
essary items.
“We have a number of new
industries located in Woburn and
Wilmington and other areas along
the road’s right of way. And, of
course, while we are helping the
new industries we are also helping
ourselves — but the end in view is
much more far reaching than n
railroad grab for business.”
.»lr. O’Rourke outlined the
growth and development of the
railroads and said thut they are
now spending more than $1 billion
a year on improvement and moder-
nization — $8 billion in eight years,
“more than what the country has
spent on atomic power.”
He told his hearers that nearly
j all of them, as insurance policy
holders at least, are investors in
the nation’s railroads.
As investors, he told them they
should be interested in such things
as the number of rail employees —
1,226,000 in the country, 12,600 on
the B & M — and the annual payroll,
which runs to nearly $5 and 1/3
billion nationally.
He said it takes an average of
$21,436 to start one railroad man
on his job, exclusive of wages.
The railroad tax bill for last
year, he said, came to $1 Vfe billion.
“On the local level,” he said, “the
Boston & Maine alone paid out
$2,944,000 in taxes, both state and
municipal.”
As for the national railroad tax
bill, Mr. O’Rourke said:
“In terms of money the railroads
took in, this means that all their
revenue from passenger traffic, plus
all the money they received for ex-
press shipments, plus two-thirds of
their revenue for carrying mail
were required to pay their local,
state and federal taxes.”

TO START ON OVERPASS SOON
In an attempt to satisfy a gene-
ral curiosity the Star yesterday
asked Chairman Don S. Greer of
the Board of Selectmen how soon
work on the overpass to eliminate
the grade crossing will commence.
Mr. Greer was not sure of the
exact time, but did state that sev-
eral of the contracts were in
shape to be let out for bids and
that it is believed that work on the
trestle at the Woburn loop would
start in the near future.
How soon the main job will get
underway has not been determined
as yet, but work which has to be
done where the soil is wet and
mucky can best be done when the
weather is cold.

HEAVY RAIN
Winchester had its second heavy
rainfall of the week Wednesday,
though the downfall was not so
heavy as that of Monday morning,
when a high wind as well as heavy
rain made things doubly un-
pleasant.
Streets were flooded on both
days, the accumulation of leaves
in the gutters around catch-basins
preventing the surface drainage
system from functioning properly.
Cellars were flooded around town
and on Wednesday about noon time
the Fire Department was called to
the home of Michael Colucci at 80
Nelson street where water from a
flooded gutter was entering the
house through a basement window.
Football fans could be spotted

Just a few words about tho team
(Go West Young Man) California
a state of opportunity. This team
consists of “Greeper Gene" who is
so well rooted he can’t possibly go
west without an okay from the
state officials so as not to jeopard-
ize the population of the state.
“Ballerina Tony” a quiet sort,
hut beware of the quiet ones. “Atlas
Frank” don’t cross him but still a
good guy. “Rattler John” hard to
figure says little but gives his all
for the team. “Halfback Riga, Jr.”
a good howler, the best on the team.
“Shiny” easy going round faced
hoy of youth. Innocent as a babe
in the woods.
Whispers heard around the alley
“St Bernard Eyes” Voci was the
winner of a 25 pound suckling pig.
Will he be able to raise it or will
he talk it to death ?
Married men have put in for a

ing factor in Inst Friday’s refer-
endum. There were other factors
of course. The proponents made
much of the argument that those
opposing the overhead had no other
plan to offer, while the opposition
countered with the claim that no
plan hut the overhead would he
ronsidered. Some undoubtedly vot-
ed against the plan to save the
$100,000 which is the town’s share
of the six million dollar project,
while others argued that to get six
million dollars worth of construc-
tion for $100,000 is a good deal.
Some were undoubtedly influenced
by the warning of overhead pro-
ponents that if Winchester did not
tnkc the six million, it would go to
some other community. Each side
accused the other of misrepresen-
tation and very probably neither
was wholly blameless in this re-
pect. For example the proponents’
claim of deaths due t«» the rail-
road differed widely from that
of the legal department of the Bos-
ton & Maine Railroad published by
the other side. Some of the claims
were not pretty, and undoubtedly
personalities entered into the final
decision of the voters to far too
great an extent. From all the argu-
ments, pro and con, one fact
emerges clearly. The limited town
meeting delegates can not be
argued to represent the feelings of
their respective precincts when a
vote passed by a limited town
meeting with the overwhelming
majority of 143 to ‘23 can get by in
a referendum vote, under the most
favorable of conditions, by only
873 votes out of 5,096 cast.
The Star was interested this week
to be told that because of the “land
takings” involved in the overhead
tracks and diversionary highway
project the vote, both at town meet-
ing and in referendum should have
required a two-thirds majority to
pass. The town meeting vote was
away in excess of two thirds, but
the referendum would have deci-
sively beaten the proposal to raise
the tracks had a two thirds vote
been necessary. The Star, when
told of the two-thirds vote angle,
felt that perhaps such a vote would
not apply in the case of the over-
head since the land money was ap-
propriated for damages and not
takings. As we understand it, ex-
cept for a small bit at the Win-
chester Drug corner all the land to
he used for the temporary tracks
and permanent construction of the
overnead can he returned to the
owners. In the case of the diver-
sionary highway some of the abut-
tors are losing strips of land per-
manently, and if the town was tak-
ing the land, a two-thirds vote
would be necessary. In every in-
stance however, the State is taking
the land, permanently or other-
wise, so that the town has nothing
to say about the matter, except to
pay the $190,000 which the State
has designated as our portion of
the land damages. The State of
course needs no vote by a city or
town to take land, either tempor-
arily or permanently.
The votes are in and counted
and it now looks definitely as
though we are going to have the
railroad tracks raised from ap-
proximately the Medford to the
Woburn line to eliminate the grade
crossing in the center. The pro-
ponents of the overhead plan are
now rejoicing in their victory and
those opposed to the great wall
through town are dreading its com-
ing erection. As opposing the
overhead, the Star would feel a lot
better about the outcome of last
week’s referendum if a larger pro-
portion of the town's citizens had
evinced a greater interest in rais-
ing the tracks through town and a
greater proportion of the town’s
electorate had voted for the scheme.
At the time of the previous referen-
dum on the overhead only a little
more than 54 percent of the town’s
registered voters went to the polls,
and many were disturbed over
what was thought to be an inexcus-
able apathy over a matter of im-
portance affecting the town for all
time. This year’s vote, though
larger, 5,096 to 4,869 in April of
’52, is still no better percentage
wise than the previous 54 percent,
being virtually the same. As a
matter of fact, and in spite of re-
peated announcements that a great
majority of the citizens of the town
favor the overhead, only about 32
percent of the 9,421 registered
voters have been recorded in favor.
Actually more than 33 percent of
the approximately 9,000 voters in
April, ’52, voted for the overhead
at the previous referendum. The
official census figures of 1950 total
the town’s population at 15,567, and
even with this figure, which of
course is too low, even for 1950,
slightly less than 13 percent of the
town’s inhabitants want the over-
head tracks. Granting, of course,
that all the town’s population is not
adult and eligible to vote, the per-
centage of those who want the
great wall through town still is not
impressive, though we will have to
admit it is greater than those who
by their vote at least have signified
that they do not want it. The pro-
ponents had a strong hand to play
from. With the Selectmen, Plan-
ning Board, Finance Committee and
the State Commissioner of Public
Works recorded for raising the
tracks, not to mention the last
minute boost from the Assessors,
those leuding the opposition had a
really tough row to hoe, particular-
ly in view of the gospel that had
been widely spread to the effect
that it was the “overhead or noth-
ing”. Undoubtedly those who felt
strongly enough that something
had to be done about traffic in the
square, went for this reasoning,
and we believe this was the deeid-
MOZART LIKE MAPLE SYRUP!
Editor of the Star:
Every fall hundreds of hopeful
parents arrange for music lessons
with enthusiastic teachers, and
hundreds of children, with dreams
of making music, go to their first
lesson. How many teacher hours
and little boy and girl hours are
needed to make one dream come
true ?
Judging by the innumerable
adults who had music lessons in
their youth but now “Can’t play a
note”, who wish their parents had
made them practice, who wish their
parents had not forced them to
practice, there has been an enor-
mous waste of time, effort, and
money, and this waste, with ac-
companying feelings of regret or
resentment, will go on unless cer-
tain facts are recognized and cer-
tain things brought under control.
A Mozart sonata is like maple
syrup. It takes five gallons of
technique to produce one pint of
pure Mozart. Let’s face the first
fact. The child has to practice, and
practice every day. The other fact is
that the teacher sees her pupil once
a week, or at best, twice, and, if she
is worth her salt, will send the
child home full of ambition ana
enthusiasm. What happens to that
enthusiasm? Is it put to work and
kept alive, or allowed to evaporate
through lack of planning, or stifled
by a multiplicity of other matters
clamoring for the child’s attention?
Who is responsible for it,
If a parent assumes this respon-
sibility, good! Heifetz, himself a
parent, believes that “the parental
attitude is the main factor in mak-
ing the difference between a suc-
cessful musical education and a
botched-up business, in which the
child resents the parents, and the
parents feel they are wasting
money on the lessons, and the prac-
tice hour becomes a pitched battle.”
We all know those pitched bat-
tles! How can they be avoided?
But remember, the child wants
music. He himself probably asked
for the lessons. Every child under-
stands the need for practice in
games and sports, and not one be-
grudges the hours of practice on
the playing field or in the gymna-
sium. He has already accepted the
idea of practicing and certainly at
first he is willing and eager to
practice. Then how do we keep
him eager and willing? Here is
where careful planning and cooper-
ation is needed.
Help the child choose a con-
venient time for practicing, and a
place too, if the instrument is not
the piano, then stick to it. Protect
that time and the child from en-
croachments and distractions. Like
a dental appointment, there simply
are no arguments against keeping
it. Also, decide with him in ad :
vance how he is to he reminded,
should he forget. A gentle re- 1
minder, even a look, can he turned
into “nngging” by a guilty mind.
He may prefer to keep his own
practice chart.
By all means surround him with
music to keep his goal in sight and
remind him what the practice is for.
Play with him. Play for him. Play
for yourself. It will do you good
as well ns him. Take him to con-
certs. Tune in to the wonderful
concerts offered by TV and radio.
Buy him records. Don’t ask him if
he had a “good lesson”, but show
genuine interest in what he is
learning, and why, and how. Cu-
riosity stimulates, enthusiasm is
contagious, and appreciation and
encouragement work wonders.
Today’s competition for time and
attention is not confined to our
children. Aren’t we all in the same
maddening dilemma of having con-
stantly to choose what we consider
most worth our tiipe and attention
and letting less important things
go? Perhaps if we help our chil
dren to learn to make a wise sclec
tion of activities they will not have
ulcers and break -clowns when they
reach our age.
There is no age limit to the mak-
ing of music. The practice and
playing of the game is more impor
tant than the outcome. Time spent
now in practicing and playing
music is an adventure into the
world of sound — a world of time-
less beauty with no boundaries, no
tensions, and is an investment for
an enriched life to the t>nd.

THANKING WORKERS
November 24, 1953
Editor of the Star:
May we through your columns
express our sincere appreciation to
all those who worked for the suc-
cess of the grade crossing project
in the referendum.
We are very glad that tin* action
of our Town Meeting Members has
been sustained by the voters and
we feel sure that when the project
is complete an even larger percent
of our townspeople will agree that
Winchester has been greatly bene-
fited.
Sincerely yours,
Committee for Grade Crossing

CORRECTION
We got our raises mixed a trifle
in last week’s Star as we reported
the recommendations of the Per-
sonnel Committee accepted by the
special town meeting of November
16. Fred Ives, chairman of the
Board of Park Commissioners, in-
forms us that it was the superin-
tendent of the Park Department
whose maximum pay was advanced
from $3500 to $4000, and not the
superintendent of the Cemetery
Department, as printed in the Star.
The Cemetery superintendent’s
maximum was advanced from
$3500 to $3700. Sorry “Babe”, and
incidentally, “Joe”!
We made another mistake in our
report of the meeting, in connection
with the authority voted the Se-
lectmen to appoint a new police
officer to the local department for
traffic duty exclusively. We re-
ported that the sum of $3080 was
appropriated from Excess and De-
ficiency for this purpose, in accord-
ance with the motion as printed in
the warrant. Actually the mo-
tion passed by the special meeting
made no appropriation for the
officer, though it voted the Select-
men authority to appoint one Jan-
uary 1.

TO THE
PARENTS OF WINCHESTER
The Winchester District Com-
mittee of the Fellslnnd Council,
Inc., requests that you rend ench
and every word thnt follows. It is
vital to you as parents of hoys who
are now Cubs, Scouts and Explor-
ers, ns well ns those parents who
have young sons who arc soon to
enter the movement as Cubs and
advance through the trails of
Scouting.
The Boy Scouts of America real-
ize the great responsibility which
is being placed upon it ns the lead-
ing institution and organization to
instill leadership, character and
moral stamina in the growing boys
of every community in which the
Scouting movement is sponsored.
Over the years more than 20,-
000,000 hoys have participated and
enjoyed the advantage of Cubbing,
Scouting and Exploring. To-day
the organization, on a nation-wide
basis, furnishes more than 2,300
professionals to the various Coun-
cils to provide the program to over
3.148,000 Scouters. There are also
more than 847,000 volunteer per-
sonnel such as arc requested by the
Scoutmasters, Cubmasters, Com-
mitteemen and women, Den
Mothers and so on up through the
District Councils, Regional and
National organizations.
What does this all mean to you
as an individual parent in Winches-
ter? It means that there is avail-
able in your Town one of the great-
est movements for good, to preveht
juvenile delinquency, to develop
family participation and create a
greater understanding between
parent and son. It means regard-
less of race, color or creed that
your son who participates in this
program shall receive and he in-
stilled with the fundamental prin-
ciples which, if followed, will de-
velop him into a citizen who will
he respected in his community.
Because of the rapidity of ex-
pansion in Winchester (1952-450 to
1953-700) in our Explorer Posts,
Scout Troons and Cub Packs, the
District Committee has felt that an
appeal must be made to the parents
of Winchester to come forward and
volunteer their services in any
capacity for which they feel they
are qualified, or for which they are
willing to be trained. Within the
next year we will need the services
of Scoutmasters, as new Scout
Troops must be formed. We will
need six Cubmasters over and above
the replacement of the present
Cubmasters (who just become
worn out). Several of your packs
are now caring for over ninety- 1
cubs — too large for efficient oper-
ation. To hack up these Scoutmas-
ters and Cubmasters likewise re-
quires extra personnel in the form
of committeemen and Den Mothers.
All we need is your willingness
to eo-operate, we have the instruc-
tors and literature to inform you
of this stupendous program.
There are among you many will-
ing parents and there are too, many
who were Scouts in their youth,
Eagles, Life, Star, First Class and
other Scouts who realize what
Scouting has meant to them.
Please, your cooperation and
help is needed. Volunteer! Call
Winchester G-2030 or write your
chairman at Fellsland Council, Inc.,
South Border road, Winchester.
Thank you for your interest.
James M. Joslin, Chairman
OPEN HOUSE AT CALIDYHE
(Continued from Page 1)
— — —
Expansion
In January 1951, there were still
only nine employees but it was in
this year that the company became
known and recognized. A demand
developed for its products. Expan-
sion began in earnest. The Win-
chester building became over-
crowded and overflowed into addi-
tional manufacturing space in Wo-
burn. Soon, both buildings became
overcrowded and a completely new
and modern building was expressly
planned for Calidyne. A site was
selected on Cross street and con-
struction was begun. In June
1953, the entire operation was con-
solidated and moved into the new
building.
Growth
Calidyne now consists of more
than a hundred people and growth
in sales has been proportional to
people. In 1962, sales were 240* V
higher than in 1951. And. for the
first eight months of 1953, they
were 40' , higher than for the
same period in 1952. A strong
backlog of orders still exists.
Prospects
Our products are largely used by
manufacturers of airplanes and
many other devices which call for
careful design and testing for
critical usage by military and
civilian agencies. But, the demand
is great and the future encourag-
ing. Applications for Calidyne
products also exist in general in-
dustry.
Products
Our primary interest is in vibra-
tion measurement, and Calidyne
products all stem from this interest.
Yet, they still cover a wide field in
types and principles of operation.
Our shakers and calibrators are the
best known. These are used for
shake-testing (vibrating) various
objects such as assemblies, ma-
chines, vacuum tubes, etc., to see
what effect actual vibration in
service will do to them. Our other
products such as Calivolters,
Vibrascopes, Ratio Boxes, Signal
Monitors, etc., are more complex
instruments for precise laboratory
and other scientific vibration
| measurements.
Custom Quality
There is no production line at
I Calidyne. Each Calidyne instru-
i ment is custom built to fill a parti-
I cular order and the parts we manu-
facture are made only as and when
required. Work assignments vary
sufficiently to maintain interest and
call for both initiative and in-
gonuiU’. These conditions all call
for people of unusual ability and
special skill, people who enjoy their
work and are willing and able to
develop new methods and tech-
niques, people who get along well
together. This is why you can de-
pend on Calidyne.

Men and women who remain in
active military service after De-
cember 31, 1953, or enter service
after that date will get social
security wage credits under the
old-age ami suvivors insurance
program, the Cambridge social
security office, declared today.
A newly enacted amendment to
the law extends the period of mili-
tary service coverage to July 1,
1955. Persons in service will get
$160 a month social security wage
credits for each month of active
duty until that date. Under the
previous law, social security mili-
tary wage credits did not apply to
months of active service after De-
cember 31, 1953.
The Manager of the Cambridge
office pointed out that this amend-
ment to the Social Security Act is
of particular value to those who
will not complete their period of
active military service this year,
and to those newly entering mili-
tary service. It will be of advan-
tage also to some career service
persons who completed their 30
years of service during the World
War II period and who are still on
active duty. They will continue to
get $160 a month social security
wage credits until mid-1955.
Another provision of the amend-
ed law extends the time for filing
application for lump-sum death
payments. This is of interest to
survivors of service persons who
die outside the United States after
December 1953, and whose remains
are returned to any one of the 48
States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto
Rico, or the Virgin Islands for
burial or reburial. Under the
amended law, lump-sum payments
may he made in case death occurred
in active service abroad before
July 1955 provided application
for the payment is made within
two years of the date of burial or
reburial.

’’Ancient nnd Modern Necromancy, alias
Mesmerism nnd Hypnotism, Denounced” 1 h
the subject of tile Lt sson-Sermon. The
Bible rending contains this passage from
Ephesians:
"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the
Lord, and in the power of his might.
Wherefore take unto you the whole ar-
mour of God, that ye may be able to with-
stand In the evil dny. nnd having done nil,
to stand" (6:10,13).
The following passage will he rend from
Science nnd Hcnlth with Key to the Scrip-
tuns" by Mary Baker Eddy:
"There is no power apart from God.
Omnipotence has all-power, and to ac-
knowledge any other power is to dishonor
God" (228:26-27).
The Golden Text is from III John:
"Beloved, follow not that which is evil,
but thnt which is good. He thnt doeth
goo, I is of God: but he thnt doeth evil hath
not Been God" (1 : 1 1 >.

SALISBURY ASKS
FOR MORE ROOM
England’s old cathedral town of
Salisbury, long overcrowded, seeks
to swallow its parent.
The city council, notes the Na-
tional Geographic Society, has ask-
ed to annex more than 1,000 acres
of the surrounding Wiltshire coun-
tryside. And in the 1,000 acres
lies Old Sarum, from which the
populace followed their clergy
more than 700 years ago to found
nearby New Sarum, now called
Salisbury.
G. I. Memories
American soldiers of two wars,
training on the grassy Salisbury
Plain to fight in France and Ger-
many, well remember the pictur-
esque city. Through 13th century
gateways, they passed on their
short days of leave into narrow
streets flanked by small neat
houses with red roofs. Warm and
friendly townspeople welcomed
them.
In beamed public rooms of an-
cient inns — tte White Hart, the
Rose and Crown and the Old
George — they lolled on Jacobean
furniture before crackling log fires
while they learned the pleasant
British custom of tea at 4 p. m.
They fed the friendly ducks and
swans in the clean, weedy rivers,
one of them the Avon, that come
together at Salisbury. Returning
to barracks in the misty dark, they
met the cheerful little owls of rural
England, hooting unafraid beside
the winding lanes.
Hundreds of them, on sunny
Sundays and moon-drenched nights,
climbed the green slopes of the
great mound that is Old Sarum to-
day. But few knew they lolled and
romanced on the original Salisbury.
Men of prehistory who carried
huge stones down from Wales to
build Stonehenge a few miles away
may also have built at Old Sarum.
Whatever its origin, Roman in-
vaders took over a town in being
and called it Sorbiodunum.
Home of Kings
Kings of Wessex followed to
erect a moated castle, a cathedral
and homes for their followers.
Jammed closely together, clergy
and soldiery squabbled continually.
One day the soldiers locked out the
priests, who promptly started
building New Sarum. The people
deserted the soldiers for the priests,
and by the 16th century, Old Sarum
was a deserted ruin.
The church of St. Mary, known
the world over as the Salisbury
Cathedral, subject of paintings by
John Constable, was 38 years build-
ing. The time was the 13th cen-
tury, when Henry III was king.
Somewhat severe inside, but re-
garded as one of the finest ex-
amples of English Gothic archi-
tecture, the narrow, cruciform
cathedral has the tallest spire in
England.
Standing atop a tower not en-
gineered to support such a great
weight, the 404-foot landmark has
been a worry for 600 years. Re-

CHRISTMAS
SEALS
Many people think that the social security taxes they pay provide
only for retirement income. This is only part of the story. There are
now 1 *V| million survivors of deceased workers who are receiving month-
ly benefit checks. Remember — social security taxes provide protection
for both the worker and his dependents.
***
Do you know that more than 5 \ , million persons are now receiving
old-age and survivors insurance benefit checks each month? Yes, that’s
right — 5' . million every month. These payments were paid for by the
social security tax of workers and their employers and of self-employed
persons who were covered by social security. Ho you know what pro-
tection you are providing for you and your family’s future through
social security payments? If you’re not sure, or if you have any ques-
tion about the social security program, better consult your local social
security oflice. It is located at 2 Trowbridge street, Cambridge, Mass.
* ***
In these uncertain times, the worker who is insured under social
security can take comfort from the fact that a measure of financial
security is guaranteed him and his dependents through the payment of
his social security taxes. Let’s examine this protection more closely.
First, there are retirement benefits for the insured person and his family
when he retires at age 65. And second, in the event of his death, month-
ly benefits are payable to his depentent children under 18, and their
mother or, if his family is grown, to his widow when she reaches 65.
A lump-sum death benefit is also payable to help with funeral expenses
when he dies no matter at what age. For further information about
social security payments consult your local social security oflice at
2 Trowbridge street, Cambridge, Mass.
***
Your social security account represents protection for you and your
dependents in your old age and for your family in ease of your death.
Consult your local social security office for details about this valuable
insurance protection. Residents of Cambridge and vicinity should go
to 2 Trowbridge street, Cambridge, Mass.
pairmen have worked on it many
times. In 1668, Sir Christopher
Wren found it leaning almost two
feet out of plumb. Even the rever-
berations of the church organ have j
caused fear for its stability.
Following World War II, crafts-
men in stone spent two years re-
building the topmost 25 feet in a
major renovation financed in part
by American gifts. Two German
fighter-bombers in 1942 almost
saved them the effort. Swooping
low on one of the few occasions
Salisbury heard guns fired in
anger, they narrowly missed run-
ning into the spire in the low over-
cast. Several homes and the city’s
domestic gas holder were hit that
day.

GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES
AND BRIEFS
The tomb of the Unknown Sol-
dier in Arlington National Cem-
etery has one of the largest single
blocks of marble quarried in Amer-
ica, says the National Geographic
Society. It came from an almost
solid mountain of marble in west-
ern Colorado and was cut to size
in Vermont.
Few centipedes have as many as
100 legs, says the National Geo
graphic Society. The common
house type has only 15 pairs; the
garden variety, 21 pairs. Some
species have as many as 200 legs.
The blue whale is the world’s
largest mammal, says the National
Geographic Society. Some speci-
mens exceed 100 feet in length and
weigh as much as 115 tons. Ten
men can stand upright in the
mouth of a large blue whale.
Canada is second only to South
Africa in gold production, says the
National Geographic Society. Gold
is mined in all but two of Canada’s
Provinces.
In Africa there are only four
independent countries not asso-
ciated with colonial empires:
Egypt, Ethiopio, Liberia, and
Libya.
Only one motor road crosses the
180th meridian of longitude, the
International Date Line. It lies on
Taveuni Island in the Fijis.
At arid Baku on the salty Cas-
pian, sea water can be distilled at
low cost because of plentiful oil
heat. In most dry places, sea dis-
tillation cost in prohibitive.

Spring and fall, for several
years past the Boy Scouts have
come to clean up the grounds at
the Winchester Hospital. Last Sat-
urday, with Mr. Francis MacFeeley,
the Field Executive of the Fellsland
Council, and Mr. A. T. Buros, Com-
mitteeman from Pack 3, they came
again, with rakes in hand. Mr.
Ernest Fitzsimmons, in charge of
Maintenance at the Hospital, super-
vised the job and contributed his
time to the undertaking which was
not completed until 2 p. m. He was
much pleased as he saw the truck
loaded with leaves four times and
driven off to the dump.
The boys were industrious and
seemed to he happy, doing a job for
their community. They cleaned
under the hedges, around the bush-
es and over the lawns. They deserve
credit for giving up their Satur-
day to being good citizens.
Mr. James Joslin is the Chair-
man of the Winchester District of
the Boy Scouts and the Hospital
wishes to thank him and Mr. Mac-
Feeley and Mr. Buros and Mr. Fitz-
simmons and everyone identified
with this effort. It especially wants
to thank the 18 boys listed below.

NEW SERVICE AT SWANSON’S
The silver Tea and Coffee Service
is fast becoming an essential part
of modern-day entertaining, re-
ports Carl O Swanson of G59 Mass-
achusetts avenue, Arlington.
Years ago the family Tea Service
or for afternoon tea”. Today Swan-
son’s point out the silver Tea
Service is an indispensable part of
almost all forms of entertaining —
Bridge, Teas, Dessert Entertaining,
After-the-Party Snacks, Television
Suppers,. Buffets, etc.
There’s no need either, to think
that one must purchase a complete
7-pieee service all at once. “By
building a service a piece-at-a-tim<?,
women today can have at least a
silver coffee pot for entertaining
without breaking the family budg-
et. That way, in a few months or
years, a woman can acquire a com-
plete silver Tea Service without
straining the family finances.”
WINCHESTER GARDEN CLUB
The Winchester Garden Club met
at the spacious home of Mrs. J.
Edward Downes on Thursday. No-
vember 19, the beauty of the house
and grounds giving added pleasure
to the afternons’s enjoyment. Des-
sert was served by the hostess, as-
sisted by her charming daughters-
in-law, with Mrs. William W. Good-
hue and Mrs. Angela W. Ghirardini
at the coffee and ten urns, a beau-
tiful arrangement of pink carna-
tions and white chrysanthemums
gracing the center of the table.
Mrs. Samuel B. Kirkwood, Pres-
ident, conducted the business meet-
ing, after which a most delightful
program was presented by Mrs.
Norman M. Mitchell. Her subject,
"Christmas Decorations for the
Home”, was illustrated by many of
her distinctive wreaths and sprays
made of evergreens and pine cones,
showing her skill in creating such
beauty with the materials found in
her own home in Maine.
Her first treatment of decor-
ations for Christmas gave sugges-
tions for the outside door, using
large wreaths or sprays, some of
which were decorated with pine
cones, gilded or plain, or clusters of
Christmas tree halls, for impres-
sive doorways, and smaller wreaths
or sprays for less pretentious
doors. This was followed by sug-
gestions for decorating the living
room, one arrangement of graceful
sprays of juniper with pine cones
j for the center of interest, in a soft
green pottery container on a wood-
j en stand.
A beautiful head of a Madonna
and Child, backed by sprays of
juniper, with bayberry candles in
hand-curved candle sticks on each
side of the Madonna, created great
interest, and another small stand-
ing figure of a Madonna and angels
against a pale blue background
brought a mystic quality in con-
trast to the brilliance of some of
the other arrangements.
Another appealing group reveal-
ed some Christmas carolers stand-
ing beside a lighted street lamp,
with a white fence and evergreens
in the background.
In decorations for the dining
table Mrs. Mitchell showed two
contrasting arrangements, the first,
using a plain red cloth, featured a
simple massing of evergreens in the
center, with a big red candle at
each end and a fat Santa buck-
up to each candle. The other ar-
; rangement, for a formal dinner,
used a soft green cloth with a cen-
terpiece of gilded fruit, including a
pineapple, pears, gourds, pecans in
grapelike clusters, pine cones, limes
in their natural color, and small
green Christmas tree halls. This
stunning arrangement was placed
on a modern container of bent
glass, and the place cards were
gilded and decorated with tiny
sprays.
For the buffet Mrs. Mitchell
showed a distinctive arrangement
of three of her beautiful wreaths
made entirely of pine cones, the
large wreath in the center and a
smaller one on each side, with can-
dles inside the wreaths. For a
simple decoration a massing of
evergreens with two red pome-
granates and a single candle in a
red glass vigil lamp proved satis-
fying, as well as the familiar
plaque of the Bambino inside a pine
cone wreath. Last of all, an ap-
pealing figure of an angel with a
lost lamb at its feet and a child
looking adoringly at the angel,
brought the true spirit of Christ-
mas to all the members and their
guests.

WINCHESTER
HOME AND GARDEN CLUB
On Wednesday afternoon, No-
vember 18th, the Winchester Home
and Garden Club held a most in-
teresting meeting in the Art Room
of the library. The Club’s own Mrs.
Norman M. Mitchell was the speak-
er, her subject being "Decorating
for the Holidays.” By 2 p. m. there
was standing room only, for this
afternoon had been long awaited
by the club members. Mrs. Mitchell
told of the joy each Christmas sea-
son of going into the woods and
fields to gather the needed mate-
rials for a truly traditional Christ-
mas. She showed beautiful swags
of different designs for the front
door. A large wreath of fine cones
in their various shadings was most
enthusiastically received. For the
inside of one’s home she showed
several types of wreaths for over
the mantle, all most interesting and
beautiful. A handsome table ar-
rangement of gilded fruit on a
glass tray with touches of green
for the limes and the green top
of the gilded pineapple, was much
appreciated. And of course it
wouldn’t be Christmas without the
nativity scenes. Mrs. Mitchell, as
always, showed deep thought and
sensitivity in her lovely arrange-
ments of these.
The meeting closed with a vote
of gratitude to Mrs. Mitchell for
her delightful presentation of holi-
day decorating.

You may be interested to know
that the many orders for new de-

very successful summer shop in
Ogunquit, Maine, and partly due
to visitors to Winchester.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
MEN S CLUB MEETING
The speaker for the second meet-
; ng of the Men’s Club, of the First
i Congregational Church to be held
Tuesday, December 1, will be Dr.
John S. Badeau, President of the
Near East Foundation, New York
City.
The title of Dr. Badeau’s talk will
be "Watch The Middle East —
World Danger Zone”.
Dr. Badeau has just returned to
this country from an extensive trip
through the Near East where he
has visited at length with the
leaders of government and public
life in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iran,
and Greece.
Dr. Badeau is one of the best in-
formed Americans on affairs in the
Near and Middle East. For the
past seveh years he has been the
President of the American Univer-
sity at Cairo, Egypt, the lending
educational institution of that
strategic land.
During the war Dr. Badeau was
chief of the Middle Eastern Affairs
division of the U. S. Office of War
Information.
Following graduation from Union
College in 1924 ns an engineer, Dr.
Badeau decided to turn to education
and missionary work in the Near
East. Accordingly, he gave up en-
gineering to attend Union Theo-
logical Seminary from which he re-
ceived the Master’s degree in reli-
gion and philosophy in 1928. From
that time to the present his life has
been spent in the Near East. He
has taught in schools and colleges
in Mesopotamia, Mosul, Bagdad,
and Cairo. From 1938-1942 he was
Dean of the Faculty of the Amer-
ican University at Cairo.
Dr. Badeau is the author of two
recent studies on the Near East
published by the Foreign Policy
Association. One is entitled "East
and West of Suez”. The other is
"Modern Egypt.
Our guest is no stranger to Win
Chester, having spoken to the an-
nual meeting of the College Club
two years ago. He is one of the
most dynamic speakers on world
affairs and is in heavy demand
among American colleges and For-
eign Policy Association gatherings.
This should he one of the year’s
most worthwhile evenings.
The meeting will start with sup-
per at G:30 p. m.
Following supper there will be a
program of music by Miss Dorothy
E. Brandt and the Male Chorus of
the Senior Choir. The music pro-
gram will be under the direction of

"THE IMPORTANCE
OF BEING EARNEST"
A comedy of manners by Oscar
Wilde was presented by the Parish
Players of the First Congregation-
al Church under the direction of
Harlan F. Grant November ID, 20
and 21 in the Little Theatre Be-
neath a Spire, with the following
cast:
John Worthing, Jr. — William
Bohnort
Algernon Moncrieff — George S.
Hcbb, Jr.
Rev. Canon Chasuble, I). D. —
Thomas A. Morse
Morriman — Fred Skerry
Lane — Robert H. Dickson
Lady Bracknell — Jacqueline Hall
Sibley
Hon. Gwendolyn Fairfax — Con-
nie B. Hessler
Cecily Cardew — Becky Smith
Miss Prism — Marian T. Blake
In selecting Oscar Wilde’s “The
Importance of Being Earnest” for
their opening play of the season,
the Parish Players undertook a dif-
ficult assignment, for a comedy of
manners such as this, with its
graceful foolery, demands from
both director and cast an under-
standing of an ago in which “style”
above all else was an essential for
those accepted as “society.”
Does not Wilde accurately place
his pen on the weakness of his time
when he has Gwendolyn say, “In
matters of grave importance, style,
not sincerity, is the vital thing”?
It is greatly to the credit of Mr.
Grant that he was able to impart
to the cast an appreciation of the
graceful farce demanded, and to
the cast that they were able to
grasp and project the playfulness
that is the essence of Wilde’s com-
mentary on frivolous society.
The humor of this play is like a
bubble which the characters lightly
and with exaggerated gestures toss
back and forth until it is suddenly
and daintily pricked with an epi-
gram or a quip that showers drop-
lets of mirth over the audience.
The lightness, the quickness so
much required by a comedy of
manners was achieved to a pleasing
degree by the very competent east
selected for this production.
The story of “The Importance of
Being Earnest” is too well known
to bear extended repeating here, but
the highly improbable situation
which finds two young men seeking
to be re-christened Earnest in order
to capture the affections of two very
desirable young ladies, only to find
that they are brothers and accept-
able to their sweethearts despite
their names, provided a most en-
joyable evening.
As John Worthing, a newcomer
to the Parish Players, William
Bohnort gave an excellent perform-
ance. His expressive use of his
hands, his facial reactions, his very
graceful bodily movements set the
key for the entire play. He took full
advantage of every opportunity
given him by the playwright to
strike an attitude or to convey the
superficiality of his quick wit.
George Hebb, as Algernon Mon-
crieff, showed that he has made
great strides in his technique since
his first appearance on the Players’
stage. His boyishness, his evident
enjoyment of the part he was play-
ing came across nicely to the audi-
ence. He was strong where he
needed to be strong, and he was
truly the love-sick youth when in
the presence of his Cecily. He
pointed his lines neatly and moved
about the stage with plenty of as-
surance. It was his best perform-
ance to date and one well calculated
to give him confidence in any fu-
ture portrayals.
In full possession of the stage
whenever she appeared was Jac-
queline Sibley as a typical Oscar
Wilde dowager, Lady Bracknell.
How she dripped scorn, how biting
was her sarcasm, how calculating
her assay of the suitors, how im-
pressive her bearing. Here is an
actress of accomplishment who did
Wilde’s didactic talk proud. If a
reviewer is to give his judgment,
for what it is worth, the laurel
must be handed Mrs. Sibley for
the outstanding performance of
the show.
As Gwendolyn, Connie Hessler
caught the mood of artificiality in
both gesture nnd inflection. Her’s
was a studied performance in which
she did not for an instant let
down in character. Like Mr. Hcbb,
her portrayal of the part showed
thnt she has made steady progress
as an actress.
There may have been more beau-
tiful girls on the Players’ stage in
the past but, if so, this reviewer
has missed them. Becky Smith, as
Cecily, was lovely enough to make
any man’s heart heat fnster, wheth-
er in Wilde’s time or today. Her’s
was a most appealing performance
and we trust thnt Parish Players’
audiences will see her more and
more in the plays to come.
Marian Blake was a perfect Miss
Prism. Her fluttery uncertainty,
her demure advances to Rev. Chau-
sable, her spinstcrish coquetry
when her advances were encourag-
ed, and her pleasure when her bag
was restored to her were a joy to
watch. That bag! Years ago she
had left it in a railway station, for-
getting thnt it contained a baby.
Now she has it back and all she
can say is, “It has been a great
inconvenience being without it all
these years.” A priceless line as
Mrs. Blake gave it!
Thomas Morse’s Rev. Chnusable
was an excellent character job.
Sententious, quite horrified nt the
worldliness of the young people,
lie brought the house down when
he snid, “Were I fortunate enough
to be Miss Prism’s pupil, I would
hang upon her lips,” and followed
it up with a nicely restrained com-
ic horror when he realized what he
had uttered.
Let us not forget those two mod-
el gentlemen’s gentlemen, Fred
Skerry and Robert Dickson. This
reviewer got the distinct impres-
sion that they were quite conde-
scending to their respective “Sirs,”
neatly conveyed by a projection of
thought. A tribute to art in small
parts.
Lest this review be considered
too glowing, admittedly there were
faults as there are in any amateur
production. But in the final analy-
sis, the answer as to how good a
play is rests with the audience. The
audience obviously enjoyed it. Er- j
go, it was a good play.
A word of tribute to the two sots:
colorful, dramatic, they provided a
perfect backdrop for the mood of
the play.

HIGH SCHOOL CAST PRESENTS
"THE FORTUNE TELLER"
With the opening performance of
the operetta, “The Fortune Teller”,
°nly one week away, enthusiasm
and interest have reached a peak
unong the students of Winchester
High School nnd all their friends,
»s a carefully selected group of
thirteen principals, supported by n
well-balanced cast of over sixty,
work hard toward the perfection of
their presentation of one of the
most popular of all light operettas.
Choruses featuring the Royal
Hussars, the Grand Opera Ballet,
and a hand of gypsies combine to
add color and variety to the witty
dialogue of the story. Interest in
the ballet numbers has grown with
the announcement that the group of
talented girls in this feature have
originated their own dances under
the direction of Barbara Hottel of
the sophomore class. With careful
attention to details of professional
make-up, to special scenery, and to
colorful character costuming, the
performance promises to equal, if
not to surpass, the production four
years ago by the same groups of
“II. M. S. Pinafore.”
For those who may not he fa-
miliar with the story, a brief sum-
mary might add to their enjoy-
ment, next Friday and Saturday
evenings.
As the story opens in Act One,
Count Berezowski, Commandant of
the Secret Police in Livonia, has in-
vited the Grand Opera Ballet to a
garden party at his chateau. HU
purpose is to locate a Royal Lot-
tery ticket which he believes to he
in the possession of one of the girls.
This ticket belongs to King Gustaf,
who is to win the grand prize in
the lottery drawing the following
day, so the Count must recover it
or face the King’s extreme dis-
pleasure. Aided by Fresco, the
Ballet Master, he discovers that
Irma has the ticket. She refuses
to yield it to him, so to obtain it
the Count plans to marry her. Irma
is in love with Captain Ladislaus
of the Livonian Hussars; however,
her twin brother Fedor has appar-
ently deserted the army, and to save
him from the army and from a fir-
ing squad Irma consents to marry
the Count.
It occurs to her that she might
save Fedor while at the same time
avoiding the unpleasant marriage
to the Count if she disguises her*
self in one of Fedor’s uniforms and
replaces him at the palace. She
leaves the lottery ticket for the
Count, but it falls into the hands
of her admirer, Ladislaus, who
holds it as a trump card over the
Count.
A hand of gypsies arrives. Lad-
islaus buys the gypsy fortune teller,
Musette, from her parents, intend-
ing to substitute her for Irma at
the Count’s wedding. Fresco, who
is trying to salvage a bribe from
the count, helps him by breaking
the Count’s monocle. Practically
blind, the Count is taken in by the
subterfuge, and the first act closes
with the prospect of his marriage
to the gypsy girl.
In Act Two the gypsies return
to steal Musette, but she has decid-
ed she prefers to become a Coun-
tess and sends them away. San-
dor, her gypsy lover, pleads with
her to return to him.
The Count discovers the plot to
marry him off to the wrong girl,
and insists that Irma keep her
promise to marry him. As the lot-
tery ticket has been stolen from
Ladislaus, it appears that she must
go through with the marriage to
save her brother’s life.
The final solution of the com-
plications brings the story to a
happy ending, one satisfying to
both the players and the audience.

An occasional touch of humor
crept into the referendum cam-

the better examples we happened
to hear about being the posting of

dow of one of the stronger sup-
porters of the overhead and the
painting of “Vote Yes” on the back
of the automobile of an equally
rabid opponent of the great wall of
Winchester idea. Needless to state
each of the parties would pay well
for “information leading to the ap-
prehension, etc!”

THE FORTNIGHTLY
PROMOTION FOR CHATFIELD
Mr. George I. Chatfield of Larch-
mont, N. Y., has been appointed
Executive Vice-President of the
William Esty Company, Inc., Ad-
vertising Agency of New York.
Mr. Chatfield is a graduate of
M. I. T. and is Secretary of the
1928 class. He lived on Alben
street in Winchester, for 12 years
and was a former member of Lever
Brothers Company Advertising De-
partment, Cambridge, where he
was Advertising Manager of Rinso
and Lifebuoy before going into the
advertising agency business in 1947.
Irene K. Thresher, representa-
tive in the General Court from
Newton, was the speaker at the
last meeting of the Winchester Wo-
men’s Republican Club held in the
Baptist Social Hall on Wednesday,
November 18. Mrs. Robert Wood
Reynolds, president of the club,
conducted the business meeting,
and the speaker was introduced by
Mrs. Rowland V. Patrick, chair-
man of education.
Mrs. Thresher is one of seven
women in our legislature, which is
a small number in comparison with
the number of women serving in
the legislatures of many other
states. With this in mind, the
speaker paid tribute to women in
government, pointing out that un-
like men who frequently enter poli-
tics for personal gains, women usu-
ally seek election because they have
I ideals they are fighting for and
! causes they wish to sponsor and
j improve.
j Mrs. Thresher urged her audi-
| ence to familiarize themselves with
] our legislative procedure. “Come
: and see us spend the tax dollar,”
she invited. She paid tribute to the
“Right of Petition” we have in
Massachusetts whereby anyone can
file a bill and which entitles every
piece of legislation to a thorough
hearing. Three to four thousand
bills are reported out each year.
Particularly interesting was the
speaker’s report of her work on
special committees. As a member
of the committee on education, re-
lating to all bills in education on
the state level, she pointed out that
recently has been passed the
long-sought law providing for the
certification of teachers. Of great
importance also has been the pass-
j age of the Married Women Teach-
! ers Act, whereby marriage is no
I longer a cause for dismissal. Prog-
j ress is being made in educational
television with a grant forthcoming
from the Ford Foundation and the
Lowell Institute to he advising the
proposed station.
As a member of the Public Wel-
fare Commission Mrs. Thresher re-
ported that she has visited widely
our mental health institutions, find-
ing them by and large satisfactory.
However more intelligent social
planning is necessary for the ag-
ing, and industry should not arbi-
trarily retire people at 65, she felt.
In our penal institutions, she re-
gretted, we are doing the poorest
job. There are too many repeaters
in our reformatories and prisons.
We are not rehabilitating people.
A successful experiment is going
forward, she said, at the prison
camp in Miles Standish Forest in
Plymouth, where a picked group
of trusties are working together
under minimum security restric-
tions and living healthy, construc-
tive lives.
A social hour concluded the af-
ternoon. Tea was served by Mrs.
Wilfred McKenzie and her commit-
tee. Mrs. William I. Palmer and
Mrs. Ralnh Bonnell poured.

Members of the Better Homes
and Garden Club have been busily
working on their annual Christmas
Greens Day and Workshop. It is
called Christmas Greens Day be-
cause all kinds of greens for Christ-
mas home decorations are being as-
sembled for the sale on Wednesday,
December 9, at the First Baptist
Church. Pine cone wreaths, man-
tel, dining room and table arrange-
ments are also being artistically put
together by these members who
are: Mrs. Robert S. Baylies, Miss
Louise Bancroft, Mrs. Henry G.
Bigelow, Mrs. Harley Hart, Mrs.
June Mason, Mrs. Roger Newton,
Mrs. Ethel Stewart, Mrs. Joseph J.
Vacarro and Mrs. Malcolm Wilson.
The workshop will be set up in
the rear of the hall where instruc-
tion will be given to those interest-
ed in learning to make wreaths and
table arrangements for Christmas.
Material for these decorations will
also he for sale. Instruction will
he given by Mrs. J. Stewart Chaf-
fee, Mrs. Norman Mitchell, Mrs.
Harold M. Twombly and Mrs. John
Wills.
At the “materials” table, Mrs.
Theodore Atkinson will be in charge
assisted by Mrs. Donald Davis, Mrs.
John Chipman, Mrs. James Mc-
Govern, Mrs. Langley Keyes and
Mrs. E. Ober Pride.
Another very nice feature will he

ages, including unusual packaging
material, which Mrs. Rowland V.
Patrick has been assembling with
Mrs. Alexander Aitken, Mrs. S.
Bruce Clark, Mrs. Richard Frazier
and Mrs. George Lemany.

Charles Hart, Mrs. George Hall,
Mrs. Roger Burgoyne and Mrs.
Robert Tonon have been gathering
and painting madonnas and angels
which they assembling with can-
dles and greens for table and man-
tel decorations.
And again this year, due to the
great demand for them, Mrs. Alex-
ander Aitken is busy making
Christmas bells and reindeers.
Another popular feature of last
year was the decorated candles in
their unusual holders which Mrs.
Edward J. McDevitt and Mrs. John
Wills are making.
And, of course, the so-called
“special” table is being filled with
beautiful and artistic pieces by Mrs.

In spite of inclement weather,
The Fortnightly “American Home
and Conservation” all-day meeting
was well attended and proved to he
a most enjoyable and instructive
day.
Miss Helen Niedringhaus, Amer-
ican Home chairman, opened the
morning session at 10:30 a. m. by
introducing Mr. Leslie Browning,
of S. S. Fierce Company, whose
subject, “Food is Fun,” gave mem-
bers many new and unusual ideas
for the holiday season to make
intertaining easy and food attract-
ive. A1 enjoyed sampling some of
Mr. Browning’s creations following
his program.
During a social hour, the “Snack
Bar,” under the chairmanship of
Mrs. George French and Mrs.
Kingman Cass, was most popular
and the food delicious.
After a short business meeting
with the president, Mrs. Sidney A.
Burr, in the chair, Mrs. Lora Bond
Rhodes, Conservation chairman,
presented Mr. Lynch of the State
Conservation Commission, who
showed an interesting sound film
on “Trees of the Future.” Mem-
bers were shown exactly what this
committee is doing to protect our
forests and what we can do as in-
dividuals. It was stressed as to
what vital material timber is and
its many uses; also, what a large
part Massachusetts plays in the
production of timber.

meet in the Edgar C. Rich Room of
the public library Monday, Decem-
ber 7th, at 2:00 p. m.

Art Committee
Tuesday, December 1st, the Art

the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston,
to view the exhibition of Japanese
art. For information and transpor-
tation call the chairman, Mrs. Mar-
shall Sy mines, Winchester 6-1423.
Education Committee
Thirty-two members of the Edu-
cation Committee und guests met
Thursday, November 19th, at the
home of Mrs. Frank B. McCullough,
chairman, and enjoyed a fine pro-
gram followed by morning coffee
with the president, Mrs. Sidney A.
Buir, pouring.
The speaker, Miss Corinne Mead,
shared with us her impressions of
the many historic and interesting
places visited on a motor trip to
the West Coast. Among those men-
tioned were Lincoln’s home in
Springfield, Illinois, and his burial
place, where it was found that the
impressive granite in the rotunda
came from Quincy, Mass. She also
visited New Salem, where Lincoln
first started his law practice. She
stopped at the home of Mark Twain
in Hannibal, Mo., and traveled
through Kansas, where the heat
was unbearable, to Denver, where
the snow-capped mountains offered
some relief. Salt Lake City was
“out of this world,” Miss Mead
felt, hut the highlight of the trip
was the Grand Tetons of Wyoming
and the little pioneer town, Jack-
son Hole, where she and her party
were so impressed they stayed con-
siderably longer than they intend-
ed and had to complete the trip
east with few stops.

tles, one bought in Portugal 15

ice, France, England, and Ireland
as well as American from the ear-
liest through Tiffany.

SONS OF ITALY
HONOR SOFTBALL TEAM
PARK DEPARTMENT TROPHY
RETIRED BY SONS
Last Saturday evening, some
fifty members, guests and friends
gathered at the S. O. I. Club-house
on Swanton street to pay tribute to
the club’s softball team, which this
year won the Town Softball League
for the third time, taking the title
from the Veterans of Foreign
Wars.
The “Sons” have been contenders
or titlists in the league ever since
its beginning and have been one of
the most colorful teams to perform
on the circuit, always giving a good
account of themselves both at hat
and in the field. Their series with
the Vets this fall was one of the
best in recent years, the first game
being an extra inning affair with
the Sons coming out on top by a
score of 2-1, and going on to win
the series in the fourth and decid-
ing game. Their overall record for
the season was 24 wins as against
only four defeats.
At the head table last Saturday
were Venerable Dominic Provin-
zano; Carmine Frongillo, master of
ceremonies; Edward A. Bartlett,
Director of the Town Softball
League; Paul Connors, popular
manager of the V. F. W. team; and
Frank Procopio, manager of the
S. O. I. team. Mr. John Volpe,
Commissioner of Public Works, and
Venerable of the Lodge when the
Sons put their first team on the
field was unable to he present.
Mr. Frongillo introduced Vener-
able Dominic Provinzano who wel-
comed the members and guests, and
Congratulated the team on behalf
of the Lodge.

recently, done for at least five years
as a bowler. “Arka” I don’t know
what’s happened to him except to

Local residents and business
firms alike were reminded by the
postmaster, “Correct and careful
mailing is just as important as
early mailing. Perhaps more so.
Any unnecessary delay may pre
vent delivery of your Christmnt
cards and gifts by December 25.*'
Postmaster Thomas J. Gilgun
lists haste and carelessness as chief
trouble makers for postal employ-
ees, and quickly adds:
“There’s no good reason for ei-
in w If Stft
packages are mailed by December
5, and all Christmas cards by De-
cember 15, they’ll arrive shortly
before Santa. .
Business firms can do their part
by withholding all circular and
catalogue mail during the critical
period, December 15-26. It will help
avoid post office congestion if their
regular correspondence is posted
before 4:00 p. m. each day.

We urge others who believe as

Communism, to contribute to this
worthy cause. Anyone desiring to
help God’s work in Western Ger-
many may send a contribution to
our post, which will be forwarded
to Indianapolis.
“The Church is the bulwark of
human freedom. The people of
Western Germany arc inherently

build their places of worship, we
will provide an effective answer to

SCHOOL ATTEfiDAHCF POUCY
The policy of the Winchester
.School Committee with regard to
school attendance during inclement
weather was stated last year in a
notice sent to the parents of all
school children. In order to re-
acquaint townspeople with this
policy the following statement is
reprinted.
To All Patrons:
In order to prevent any misun-
derstandings, and to assure our
patrons of our desire to do the best
thing for individual pupils and the
school system ns a whole, the
School Committee desires to state
publicly its policy concerning school
attendance.
1. The School Committee is in
terested in the safety and health of
the children as well ns in their
regular, well-planned instruction.
2. The schools will he kept open
every day possible. In case of un-
usually severe weather or travel
conditions, the Superintendent may,
at his discretion, close the schools.
H. There are many competent ob-
servers who believe that the safety
of our children is greater when they
are in school than when they arc
not. However, the schools may be
open on days when the parent feels
it inadvisable to send the child for
reasons of health or safety. On
such days, the parent should decide
what he thinks is for the best in-
terest of the child.
4. Sometimes, the weather may
improve to such an extent soon
lifter the opening of school that
the pupil can reach school safely
and without danger to his health.
Although he may he tardy, the
parent should send him with a note
to school explaining the tardiness.
5. When a large percentage of
pupils is absent, the teachers will
not take up any new work. In any
enso, every efTort will be made to
help pupils make up the work that
has been missed.
0. Whenever absent from school
for any reason, the pupil must pre-
sent a note from the parent on his
return to school explaining such
absence,
Xo School Signals: 2-2 repeated
four times.
At 7:20 a. m. — No school for any
^f the pupils in any of the public
schools in town.
At 12:10 p. m.— No afternoon scs-
ion for the Elementary schools.
Xo school announcements will
also be broadcast over the follow-
ing radio stations between 7:00 and
7:30 a. m.: WEE1, WBZ, WXAC,
WCOr, WLAW, and WHDH.

BLOOD DONOR DAY
The Red Cross Rloodmobile
comes to the First Congregational
Church on Monday, December 14,
for its quarterly visit.
Blood is still needed for the army
and navy hospitals overseas as well

has been discovered to take the
place of whole blood.
A thorough examination is given
to each prospective donor, and no
one may give who is not “fit”. The
age limits are 18-50 years.
Winchester’s quota is a minimum
of 150 pints. Remember the day,
December 14, and call Winchester
G-2300 for an appointment.

ASST. POSTMASTER RESIGNED
MARTIN OVER 10 YEARS
IN SERVICE
Edward J. Martin, assistant post-
master of the Winchester Post Of-
fice, resigned at the conclusion of
work last Saturday night, his res-
ignation to take effect December 1.
the step was prompted by the fact
that in recent years Mr. Martin
has not been in robust health.
He entered the service May 22.
1913, when he was appointed a sub-
stitute deri by the then postmas-
ter, J. Winslow Richardson. He was
appointed a regular clerk in the
money order section December 17,
ID 17, and was promoted to superin-
tendent of mails by the then post-
master, Vincent C. Ambrose, Feb-
ruary 1, 1942. He was appointed
assistant postmaster by Postmas-
ter Thomas J. Gilgun September 1,
1949.
Mr. Martin served under seven
! postmasters, from J. Winslow Rich-
i ardson to the present incumbent,
including James H. Ronche, Pat-
rick E. Fitzgerald, John F. O’Con-
no. , George H. Loch man and Vin-
cent C. Ambrose. He also served
under Assistant Postmaster Ernest
I W. Hatch during the time Mr.
Hatch was acting postmaster. At
the time of his resignation he had
served forty years and six months,
and was widely known to patrons
of t’ e loc*;l o Ti *c, bv whom he was
held in high esteem,, his courtesy,
p casun ■ 1 and cffi<
making him popular with all.
Mr. Martin lives with his wife
at 32 Sheridan Circle, just over the
line from h ; s birthplace on Border
street in Woburn. He has lived in
Winchester since 1990 and was
graduated from Winchester High
School in 1911. Before entering the
postal service he was employed at
! the old Ames store.
His many friends wish for Mr.
Martin many years in which to
t njoy the fruits of a well earned
leisure.

C. C. PETER
W. H. S. BASKETBALL
The Winchester High School bas-
ketball squad commenced practice*
this week in preparation for a rug- j
ged court campaign this winter.
Poach Ted Bartlett has only two
lettermen available as he strives
to build a fourth consecutive Mid-
dlesex League champion. The two |
veterans arc Go-Captains Joe Di-
lorio and Dave Pratt, with Dilorio
being a starter over the last half
of the season a year ago and Pratt
a valuable substitute.
The Indians do not have the tre-
mendous height that they have en-
joyed over the past three successful
seasons hut hope to compensate for
it with greater speed and aggress-
iveness. No starting team has been
put together as yet but the quintet
seen most frequently working to-
gether consists of Dilorio and
Charlie Stevens at forward, Jim
Wright at center, and Buddy Mc-
Kinley and Lou Farrell at guard.
Members of the football squad who
reported late and are slowly round-
ing into condition to make strong
bids for varsity positions are Piatt,
Paul O’Brien, and Joe Bcllino. Oth-
er members of the football squad
who how considerable promise are
Bill Ross, Pete Gove, Nils Nelson,
and Frank Dattilo. Goaeh Bartlett
is very high on the work of two
sophomores, John Lynch and Bert
Kneeland, and feels that they are
excellent prospects.
Because of their lack of height
this season the Indians are stress-
ing greater speed and mobility and
surer ball handling to make that
first shot at the basket a good one.
No longer can they depend upon
getting many baskets on rebounds
hut must concentrate on working
ih<* ball to get a better shot at the
hoop. Their offense has been adapt-
ed to meet this change and they
should he an interesting team to
watch in action as they set up their
plays for a clear break to the bas-
ket. The word is out to watch Lex-
ington and Wakefield in the Mid-
dlesex League this year but do not
sell the Bartlcttmen short.
Winchester opens its home sched-
ule a week from tonight when they
entertain Arlington High School
at the high school gym. This is a
rugged opener for the Sachems as
Arlington is a Class A quintet that
has enjoyed great success over the
past two years winning the Subur-
ban League championship and go-
ing to the Tech Tournament both
years. It will he a stern test for
the locals and one that will provide
an excellent barometer of their suc-
cess this coming winter.

SPIRITED TANNERS MADE
GAME OF FIRST HALF
Winchester beat its traditional
rival Woburn, .'10 to 13, on Thanks-
giving Day at Manchester Field be-
fore a huge crowd thnt must have
reached 8,000 and that many be-
lieved was considerably larger. The
six thousand seats in the enlarged
grandstand were jammed and
I crowds surged to the very edge of
(he gridiron in both end zones with
the bankings behind the Woburn
, stands and at the junior high school
being black with people. Bright
sunshine after the heavy storm of
Wednesday got the crowd out for
the classic, and the field was in
surprisingly good shape considering
the heavy rains of Monday and
Wednesday.
The big crowd saw a good hall-
game for the first half, underdog
Woburn offering spirited opposition
to heavily favored Winchester and
actually controlling play most of
the time before half time except
for the Indians’ two early game
scoring drives.
Perhaps Winchester got those
two touchdowns too easily and let
down. At all events the Indians
lacked fire as the game wore along
and never did approach tho form
they showed at Wakefield.
Winchester made 15 first downs
to 11 for Woburn, rushing for 344
yards to 136 for the Tanners. Win-
chester completed four of 6 passes
for 104 yards, having one inter-
cepted; while Woburn threw 11
passes, completing five for 50
yards. Winchester fumbled twice
and Woburn four times, but the
Tanners recovered three times
while Winchester lost the ball each
time. Winchester lost 45 yards to
the officials while the Orange did
not draw a penalty. Castiglione
averaged 37% yards in two kicks
while Rcllino booted his only punt
43 yards in the air.

Of course, any day is a wonder ful day for stepping up
to Cadillac.
When the magic moment arrives in a man’s life
when he feels entitled to the “car of cars,” he should
make the move without hesitation — regardless of
year, or season, or any other consideration.
But we do feel, in all honesty, that the motorist
who finds himself in that happy circumstance this
fall is particularly fortunate.
Lor Cadillac has never offered so many wonderful
things, in such abundant measure, as it does today.
It is supremely beautiful— with grace and dignity
and majesty that set it instantly apart from the rest
of the world’s motor cars.
Its performance is simply breath-taking— even
when measured against Cadillac’s own extraordinary
standards. And the car is luxurious and distinctive and
pride-inspiring far beyond its illustrious predecessors.
In addition to all this, the current Cadillac creation
is unbelievably practical to own and economical to
operate. The lowest-priced Cadillac, for instance, now
costs less than twenty-two different models of other
makes of motor cars manufactured in America.
And you can ride out a normal, full day’s journey
on a single tankful of gasoline.
As if this were not sufficient to set it apart, a
Cadillac car — according to an authoritative study of
used car prices— may be expected to return a greater
percentage of its owner’s original investment at the
time of resale than any other motor car in the land!
So— if you are considering a Cadillac for yourself
and your family — come in and order one today!
It’s the right thing to do— and it’s the right time to
do it.

tor and Castiglione was dropped on
the Woburn 29. The Orange could-
n’t go, and Castiglione kicked to
Bellino who got back 20 yards to
the Winchester 43.
On the very first play the Indians
fumbled and Romano recovered for
Woburn. The Tanners then racked
up the game’s initial first down.
Tancredi setting it up with a five
yard »»fT tackle jaunt and Castigli-
one plunging the last two yards to
the Winchester 30.
With the Woburn stands in an 1
uproar and the Winchester fans i
wondering whether this was to be
another Woburn day, the Tanners!
tried a reverse and Allen was drop-
ped for no gain by Pratt who came
up fast to make the tackle. Then a j
backlield mixup in assignments re- 1
suited in a Tanner fumble which
the bulky Mr. Cullen pounced upon
at the Winchester 31.
Then Winchester started. Bellino
picked up 3 and Murphy bucked to
the 40. Bellino made first down
at the Woburn 45 and Haggerty
added a yard on a reverse. Bellino
took a pitchout and aided by a nice
block by Murphy scampered to a
first down at Tanner 21.
Haggerty was stopped by Brown
with only a yard, but Murphy real-
ly barrelled through to a first down
at the five. The left side of the
Woburn line dropped Bellino back
on the eight as an Orange cheer
went up, but big Mike Murphy
bulled his way to the one and then
on a veer-buck left drove over for
the first touchdown of the game.
Rotondi, with a record of nine
traight conversions from place-
ment, missed the extra point.
Castiglione ran the ensuing kick-
off all the way to his 42 yard line,
and then personally carried and
passed Woburn to the Winchester
26, his five yard heave to Rosa
making first down at the Winches-
ter 31.
Castiglione bucked to the 25 as
the first quarter ended and then
picked up two yards to the Win-
chester 23. On fourth with two
yards needed Joe tried for the first
down through the line hut was
stopped in his tracks, Winchester
taking over at its 23.
Once again Winchester started,
Rellino taking a pitchout, and aided
by a Murphy block, reaching the
Winchester 40 for a first town.
Bellino picked up another ten
across the field but a clipping pen-
alty nullified this advance and put
the ball hack at the Winchester 34.
Rig Murphy broke through to the
Woburn 44 for first down, and Pratt
sneaked for nine, Haggerty re-
versing for the first down at the
Woburn 22.
Pratt then hit Paul O’Brien with
a pass on the Tanner four and on
the next play Bellino knifed over

off tackle going into the end zone
standing up. Pratt arched a pretty
soft pass to Bellino for the extra
point.
Woburn was far from discourag-
ed and Castiglione brought the
Orange rooters to their feet as he
carried the kickoff out to the Win-
chester 44, getting past every one
but Bellino, whose pretty last ditch
tackle saved a probable touchdown.
Two passes fell incomplete be-
fore Castiglione barged off tackle
for eight, and then made a first
down at the Indians’ 34.
Brenden Allen on a reverse got
past the Winchester right flank and
streaked to the Winchester ten
where another fine tackle by Bel-
lino postponed the touchdown.
The Tanners were really fired up
at this point. Tancredi whirled off

tackle for four and Castiglione
bucked to the three. On the next
play Castiglione slanted over, but
his attempt for the extra point
from placement was wide.
Neither team got anywhere in
the remaining minutes of the half,
Romano’s interception of a Win-
chester pass stopping the Indians
while the Indians’ defense proved
too stout for the battling Tanners.
Woburn might have knotted the
count in the waning moments on
a long pass thrown by Tancredi,
had the receiver been able to reach
the ball. He had gotten by Win-
chester’s defenders and into the
clear but Tancredi ’s heave was just
a bit too long to be covered.
Haggerty ran the second half
kickofT out to the Winchester 39
and Murphy and Haggerty made it
first down on the Orange side of
midfield. Dan Mantini saved the
scoring march when he recovered a
deep reverse fumble back at the
Winchester 44, and Bellino started
things again with a slash to the
Woburn 41.
Murphy busted through for a first
down at the 36 and Haggerty re-
versed for another at the 24. Bel-
lino swept to the 15 and O’Brien
on an end around reached the 12.
Murphy bulled through to the 6,
and then, with fourth and four,
what looked like a quarterback
sweep right developed into a pretty
pass by Pratt into the end zone
where O’Brien gathered in the
leather for the touchdown. Roton-
di failed to kick in the extra point.
For the remainder of the quarter
neither team was able to go con-
sistently, but shortly after the
teams changed goals the Indians
stopped the Tanners at their 32.
Bellino made a first down but the
Indians were called for ofTsidc and
the ball went back to their 27.
Murphy broke through to the
Winchester 46, and after Bellino
was stopped for a yard loss, bulled
through again to the Tanner's 47.
Dattilo was hurt on the play and
had to be replaced by Nils Nelson.
Murphy again cracked the sag-
ging Tanner line for a first down
at the Woburn 30 where the often
fickle goddess of luck smiled her
sweetest on the Indians.
On first down Pratt faded and
arched a long touchdown pass down
field to the sprinting Bellino. Joe
got into position to grab the
leather, but another Joe, Woburn’s
Castiglione, got to it first and for a
split second it looked like he would
intercept cleanly.
He did get his hands on the pig
skin, but he couldn’t hold it, and as
he whirled away from Bellino the
ball squirted from bis arms into
Bellino’s eager paws at the Woburn
two. The Winchester back merely
had to turn and hop into the end
zone to add six points to the Win-
chester* total as deep gloom des-
cended over the Orange stands.
Coach Knowlton was a bit slow
| getting in a replacement before the
try for the extra point and Captain
Riordan bad to kick from five yards
further hack because of the infrac-
tion. His kick was no good.
Winchester kicked short and
while the Tanner’s stood around
watching Bill Jesdale, reverse
| guard, recovered the free ball for
the Indians at the Woburn 37. On
first down Lindsey went ofT tackle
to the left in a fine burst of speed,
whirled through the Tanner de-
fenders all the way into the end
zone for tht prettiest running play
of the game.
This time Big Johnny Riordan
split the uprights with a perfect
conversion and Winchester led, 32-
6. Captain Romano grabbed the
kickofT and scooted through every
one on the Winchester team into the
clear, being finally brought down on
a nice tackle by Lindsey at the mid-
field stripe with a clear field ahead.
Coach Knowlton had a lineup of
second stringers and All Americas
on the field and Woburn showed its
appreciation by going all the way.
Passes from Castiglione to Brown
made first downs at the Winchester
34 and 20 and Castiglione bucked
to the 13.
Tancredi went ofT tackle and
drove to the 2, where Castiglione
recovered a fumble for a yard loss.
Castiglione was stopped just short
of the goal line, but on the next try
bucked over, subsequently kicking
the goal with a perfect placement
to make the score 32-13.
Woburn tried a short kick, but
Winchester recovered at the Tan-
ner’s 49. Deroo picked up two, but
Winchester was called for backs in
motion and the ball went back to
the Winchester 49.
Rimbach made three yards to the
Woburn 48 and then occurred the
last and one of the prettiest plays
of the game.
Bill Ross, reserve quarterback,
faded and shot ofT a perfect pass
down field to the right. Nils Nel-
son, reserve end, made a nice catch
at the Woburn 35, and making good
use of a couple of down-field block-
ers dodged and ran into the end
zone for the final score.
Ross made the extra point good
by lobbing a soft pass into the end
zone to “Brother John” Murphy.

We happened to be in police head-
quarters recently when a number
of motorists arrived there with
tickets for traffic violations, chiefly
overtime parking. With but a
single exception those who appear-
ed seemed to feel that the officer
should not have tagged their cars
and offering all sorts of excuses for
having violated the hour or two
hour parking limit. The exception
was a popular local merchant, who
admitted he had overparked and
that he had been presuming too
much on police good nature. Of
ull those to whom we listened he
alone seemed to realize why park-
ing laws and officers who will en-
force them are necessary.
SMOKE SCREEN TORIES
Editor of the Star:
The smoke-screener Tories, vain-
glorious cowards, say they are
afraid — afraid they will incrimi-
nate themselves if they reveal
their past. By their very refusal
to cooperate with the patriots, who
are striving to perpetuate the liber-
ty our forefathers bequeathed to
us, they incriminate themselves —
they are incriminated already.
They love themselves more than
their country.
Mux Muller, eminent philologian,
wrote: “He who withholds the truth
from men from motives of expe-
diency, is either a coward or a
criminal or both.” “No man is
worth his salt who is not ready at
all times to risk his body, to risk
his well-being, to risk his life, in
a great cause,” said Theodore !
Roosevelt; and Daniel Webster
wrote: “No man can suffer tool
much in the defense of the liberties j
of his country.”
The smoke-screeners, if they had
lived in 70, would have joined the
American Tories, who called George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson,
Benjamin Franklin and their brave
followers, traitors. If the British
had triumphed at Yorktown and
captured the leaders of the patriots,
the brave Americans would have
suffered the fate of the gallant
Nathan Hale, American Revolution-
ary hero, who was captured Sep-
tember 21 and hanged the follow-
ing morning. His last words are
said to have been: “I only regret
that 1 have but one life to lose for
my country.” Captain Hale was a
graduate of Yale University that
honored itself in honoring him by
the erection on its campus of a
memorial.
Samuel P. Sears, former pres-
ident of the Massachusetts Bar As-
sociation, is quoted in the Christian
Science Monitor of November 28 as
saying: “One Iron Curtain in this
confused world of ours is enough.”
“Men who invoke the Fifth Amend-
ment in congressional probes into
Communist activities are either
guilty or not fit to be around. No-
body lias the right to invoke the
Fifth Amendment for personal con-
venience or to hamper congression-
al investigation.”
England did not love us in 76,
„shc bus never loved us and doesn’t
today. But, what is the matter
with Canada? She has refused to
cooperate wholeheartedly with us in
our struggle against the poisonous
infiltration of Communism. Igor
Gouzenko was a member of the So-
viet embassy in Ottawa. In 1045
he fled from there, taking with him
Soviet documents that “helped con-
vict eleven spies, including a Cana-
dian M. I*, and a British scientist
and gave leads on some 400 other
suspected Red operatives in the
West.” When our Government
heard of this, the State Department
asked Canada to let its investi-
gators talk to Gouzenko, who said
he was willing to talk, and “could
give advice which would have good
chances of bringing exposure . of
present Soviet spy rings in the
U. S.” The Canadian External
Affairs Chief, Lester Pearson, re-
fused our Government’s request,
stating that Gouzenko had told
Canada all he knew and thut was
all there was to it. We were wel-
come to a copy of it. Gouzenko,
WELCOME
TO THE NEW COMMAND
Editor of the Star:
The Military Manpower Commit-
tee takes great pleasure in intro-
ducing to the people of Winchester
the officers now in charge of
Army Air Force Recruiting and in
extending to them a hearty welcome
to this area. Inasmuch as these are
the officers handling the enlistment
and induction of our young men a
thumbnail sketch should he of in-
terest.
Lt. Colonel William A. Somcrby,
Jr., USAF, is now Commanding
Officer. He attended grammar and
high school in Newton and is a
graduate of Bryant and Stratton.
His mother, Mrs. Blanche H. Som-
erby, lives in Duxbury, Mass. “The
Colonel” (we don’t use this phrase
unless we really like and respect a
man) has been in the Air Force for
20 years to date. During World
War If he served as Commanding
Officer of the 11th Combat Cargo
Squadron in the China Burma In-
dia Theater of Operations. His last
assignment was an Air Attache in
Hungary where he spent 34 months
(being behind the Iron Curtain is
hardly a relaxing occupation).
Coloney Somerby is a senior pilot
and is the holder of two DFC’s,
three Air Medals, the Bronze Star,
Pacific Theater Ribbon with 3 Stars
and Burma Star. He resides in
Franklin, Mass., with his wife and
three daughters.
Captain Samuel R. Violante,
USA, born in Woburn, attended
public schools in Ansonia, Conn.,
enlisted in regular Army in 1936;
World War II, was in Iceland with
the 118 Infantry Regiment and
■ throughout the European Cam-
paign served with XVIII Airborne
•Corps (General Ridgeway). In
1960 Captain Violante was assigned
to Trieste and came on Recruiting
in 1953. Here is a very interesting
thing — The Cuptain attended the
University of Maryland in Trieste
— another example of a man in
uniform taking advantage of the
educational opportunities open to
him in the Armed Forces. Captain
Violante is now in charge of Oper-
ations, USA /USAF Rctg. to which
position we more than welcome him.
First Lt. Edward A. Myer, hard-
ly needs any introduction to Win-
chester. We are very glad to have
him join the Recruiting Service.
Lt. Myer attended Grammar School
in Weymouth and graduated from
Milton High School in 1947; en-
listed in Regular Army June 1947
and was assigned to Ft. Banks,
Winthrop until separation Decem-
ber 1948; attended Newman Prep.
School, Boston, graduating in June
1950; re-enlisted for Officer Train-
ing School and was commissioned
at Ft. Banning, Gn., in November
1961; reported to 101st ABN Div.,
Camp Breckinridge, Ky.; left for
FECOM August 1952; reporting to
the 15th Regt., 3rd I)iv., Korea,
September 1952. As Lt. Myer
tersely puts it “Taken prisoner
Chorwan Valley 26th November,
1952 — repatriated September
1953”. About what happened in
between the last two dates Lt.
Myer does not talk so neither will
the writer. He was recently mar-
ried and we know he and his charm-
ing bride will he very happy. Not
without some emotion do we say
“Welcome” to a fine young officer.
Cordially yours,
Mrs. K. B. Toye, Chairman
Military Manpower Committee
living under an assumed name and '
under Canadian police protection, |
told an interviewer there was more
to it. More recent reports state 1
that Pearson has changed his mind
and that Gouzenko may lie inter-
viewed, provided his statements are
kept secret.
The Tories of today may find a
more congenial atmosphere in Ca-
nada as many of their progenitors
did following the Revolutionary
War. The laxity of the era of the
Roosevelt-Truman blight made it
easy for the Communists to infil-
trate the state departments and
munition factories. An easy-going
carelessness developed and spread,
lawlessness increased, and the seeds
of juvenile delinquency were plant-
ed, resulting in an alarming in-
crease of juvenile crime.
The people are awakening, rising
from their lethargy, and beginning
to act. There are more good people
than bad in our country; the trouble
is, the bad get the headlines. Truth
and reform will prevail in an era
of better times. “Breathes there
the man, with soul so dead, who
never to himself hath said; this is
my own, my native land.”
Daniel C. Dennett, M. D.
THANK YOU!
Editor of the Star:
May we have space in your paper
to thank all Winchester people who
so generously answered our recent
plea for help for the earthquake
sufferers of Greece. Their response
was speedy and made it possible
for our local committee to send
substantial help while it was most
urgently needed. As chairman of
the local committee may I express
my own und my committee’s deep
appreciation.

JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP
B. U. CHILDREN S THEATRE
PRESENTS "SLEEPING BEAUTY"
On Saturday afternoon, Decem-
ber 12, at 3:00 p. m. in the new au-
ditorium of the George Washington
School, the Boston University
Children’s Theatre will present
“Sleeping Beauty”, Grimm's much
loved fairy tale.
There is scarcely a child* who has
not heard the story of the beautiful
sleeping princess; and here they
will see come to life their old
friends, Princess Gloria, Prince
Godwin, Chester the Jester, deaf
Aunt Agatha, and the evil fairy
Fearinda. Raggedy Ann, the love-
able mascot of the theatre group
will also be present to delight the
children.
This production is being sponsor-
ed by the George Washington
School Mothers' Association.
Mr. Wade L. Grindle, principal of
Winchester High School and Eliz-
abeth O’Brien of Marycliff Acad-
emy, were Winchester representa-
tives at the meeting of the New
England Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools which took
place this week in Boston. More
than 1,000 educators from all over
New England attended this meet-
ing of the oldest of the nation’s
regional educational associations.
TELEPHONE COMPANY
MAKES HISTORY
SPANS ATI. ANTIC WITH
< Alll.K
History was made today when
the Long Lines Department: of the
Telephone and Telegraph Company
announced plans to construct the
first telephone cable system across
the Atlantic Ocean. It will he by
far the longest underseas voice
cable in the world nnd the first laid
at depths found in mid-ocean.
The announcement stated that
an agreement had been signed, for
construction of the cable, by the
A. T. & T. Company, the British
Post Office, which organization pro-
vides telephone service in Great
Britain, and the Canadian Overseas
Te 1 ecom m un i ca t i on Co rpora t i on ,
which furnishes overseas commu-
nications for Canada. It will be
owned jointly by these three or-
ganizations. Simultaneous a n-
nouncemcnts were made by the ap-
propriate agencies in Great Britain
and Canada.
Developmental and research work
on such a cable has been going on
for 25 years. The project will take
three years to complete and will
cost $36,000,000.
This cable will mean greater re-
liability in transatlantic telephone
conversations and greatly expand-
ed facilities. It will provide phy-
sical telephone connection between
the United States and the British
Isles to supplement radio circuits
now in use, and will have three
times present circuit capacity.
The submarine telephone cable
system will contain a group of tele-
phone circuits between New York
and London, and another group
between Montreal and London. At
the gateway cities the circuits will
connect with the telephone systems
of the respective countries.
Spanning the Atlantic with a
cable system capable of carrying
tclephonse conversations will be the
achievement of a goal visualized
many years ago. Many technical
and economic problems had to be
solved before construction could be
undertaken. Developments of the
past few years in the art of telc-
I hony mid the growing demand for
< versear service have now made it
technically and economically fea-
sible to proceed.
The transatlantic portion of the
system, with its many vacuum tube
repeaters, will be 2,000 nautical
miles in length and will he laid in
depths up to three miles on the
ocean floor between Scotland and
Newfoundland. It will then con-
nect with another submarine cable
extending 300 miles westward to
Nova Scotia. From there, a 350
mile overland microwave radio-
relay system will he built to carry
the transatlantic circuits to the
United States border where con-
nections will be made with the Bell
System network.
Development of the technical de-
sign for the deep sea section of the
cable project has been under way
in the Bell Telephone Laboratories
for several years. Research by
British telephone engineers has
produced the design for the New-
foundland- Nova Scotia section of
the submarine cable. As a result,
the project will make use of the
experience of both the Bell System
and the British Tost Office.
The announcement also covered
many of the technical problems
faced by telephone engineers in
providing a transatlantic telephone
cable. For example, amplifiers had
to he developed which could lie laid
successfully from a cable ship, and
which would operate satisfactorily
without attention under the great
pressures existing on the Atlantic
floor. Such devices were developed
several years ago and have under-
gone successful trial between Key
West, Florida, and Havana, Cuba,
since 1950. There will be over 100
underwater repeaters on the trans-
atlantic segment of the proposed
system. The vacuum tubes used in
these amplifiers have been under
development for years and have
withstood both laboratory and un-
' derwater operating tests of the
I severest kind. The voice currents
will travel along coaxial conductors
which will be insulated by a solid
! layer of polyethylene. Power to
' operate the vacuum tubes on the
ocean bed will he fed in from Doth
j ends of the cable along the same
! coaxial conductor. The cable will
lie protected by a wrapping of cop-
1 per foil, over which there will he a
• heavy cover of jute and steel wires.
Bell System overseas service
opened on January 7, 1927, with n
* ngle radiotelephone circuit con-
necting New York to London. Dur-
ing the first year, service rapidly
expanded between the two coun-
tries and nearly 2,500 calls were
completed. Since then, the service
demand to Great Britain has multi-
plied by more than 30 times. Last
year, f or example, some 75,000 con-
versations were completed to Great
Britain. The Bell System now fur-
nishes telephone service to 102
foreign countries and annually
handles about 1,000,000 overseas
messages.

Mrs. John Ryan, chairman of the
afternoon, has arranged a musical
program for this event.
Mrs. Talma Greenwood will pin

coming new associates.
Tea and refreshments will he

her committee.
On December 29th, a Children’s
Party will be conducted in Masonic

resident of Prospect street that her
infant daughter had swallowed a
ring nnd was turning blue. Sgts.
John Dolan and Edward Bowler
made haste to the woman’s home
with Officer Alfred Poole and the
police ambulance. A call was also

"Spiritual enusntion is the one question

spiritual causation relates to human prog,

Wc arc all prone to take our
“religion” for granted. Wer
say we are “Christians,” that
we lead a "Christian Life,”
we go to church regularly or
occasionally. We have time
for our “religious life” if
nothing else interferes.
In many cases, our atti-
tudes are a result of going
to church to be lectured to or entertained. If we
don’t like the lecturer or the entertainment, we
stay away.
We Episcopalians believe that the group wor-
ship of our church is the answer. One prominent
clergyman, formerly a newspaper reporter, puts
it this way — "In the Episcopal church, it is the
corporately held faith, the corporately shared act
of worship, the corporately accepted idea of dis-
cipline and conduct that arc important; it is not
the peculiarities of particular persons or services
or sermons.”
Many non-Episcopalians, after attending Epis-
copal services long enough to “get acquainted” say
that they come away feeling as though “they had
really been in church.”
Wc invite you to come to church with us. Your
nearby fellow-worshiper will be happy to show
you how to follow the service
in our Prayer Book. We'll
welcome you.

Dear Grandchildren :
I have just finished talking with
someone in Princeton, New Jersey,
about “Acoustics”. It is fitting
that I should seek information
there, because the country looks
up to it on account of its
achievements in research, and be-
cause of the great personage who
heads its Research Institute. In
building churches and music halls
and theatres and all sorts of build-
ings acoustics is one of the impor-
tant studies and if this “science of
sound” he not considered in making
the plans nil the work may be wast-
ed so far ns hearing goes. Errors
can he of tremendous harm inside
the buildings, but out-of-doors
errors can be much worse. When
changes are made, both inside and
outside of buildings, this science
has to be depended on to safeguard
what is being done. Even raising
the levels of existing railroads can
be the means of ruining a whole
neighborhood and menacing the
health of hundreds and hundreds of
people, if this “science of sound” he
not invoked in order to (ind what
effect the raising would have on the
volume of sound. I had planned for
you a special series of articles about
Nature studies, but am obliged to
write this one first because of
sorrfething happening here in Win-
chester. It involves what I must
call “a crime against a whole town,
and all its people”, through ignor-
ance of the science of sound. First
I will talk about this crime, and
then perhaps about other past hap-
penings about which you already
know, and which may enable you to
draw conclusions, being about in-
juries and hardships caused to
people and places through disre-
gard of this most important feature
in planning, and disregard for the
rights of everyone. It is not al-
ways a conscious wrongdoing, this
disregard, but the effect is the
same.
Your Mother may have explain-
ed how Winchester came into being.
How all New England was covered
with ice until storms and floods
came and moved the ice out to sea,
and revealed what lay underneath.
When the first white people settled
here they did not understand that
if others were already here, of dif-
ferent color and habits and lan-
uage then the others must he con-
sidered enemies, with no rights at
all. They actually paid money to
people if they would only drive
them away. Where we live is part
of u long and heautiful valley, call-
ed the Merrimac Valley, with lakes
and rivers and hills, and wonderful
birds and animals. The rivers and
the streams turned mill-wheels for
all sorts of grain, and even ran
machinery for making clothing.
Such a mill existed at a place called
Lowell, where a great rock ledge
in the river made the water rise and
rise until it forced its way over the
rock ledge, or “dam”, and plunging
down with tremendous force gouged
its way and would not be restrain-
ed, even moving huge rocks and un- j
dermining the trees along its banks
until their roots were torn away.
But in time everything came under!
control and the power of waterfalls |
came to be understood all over the
country. Think of Niagara in this j

country, and those in Africa and
other countries! Well, all (he way
from Lowell to Boston became quite
settled, with farms and people
working at trades contentedly. A
‘ canal was dug and barges were
hauled by horses and other animals
for great distances, carrying the
products of the farmers and trades-
men to Boston for sale. Especially
the things manufactured at Lowell.
The mills that had been established
there because of the great amount
of “power” the river furnished,
made such things as cotton sheet-
ing, anti cotton for dresses, and
such like. Well, of course the mills
could not do it without the “raw”
cotton being first taken there,
so as soon as railroads began to be
built in England it was decided to
build one between Boston and
Lowell and thus “speed up” travel.
The Boston and Lowell Railroad
was begun, and Massachusetts en-
couraged the enterprise by grant-
ing a "right of way” right through.
It passed through South Woburn,
which our town was then called.
Of course you know it would be
unsafe for the streets and the rail- j
road to cross each other at the same 1
level, and it was made very clear
that if a road, or street, did cross,
then the town must build a bridge
for the street to go over, because it
was foreseen that in time neglect 1
of this would surely lead to loss of ;
life, both of animals and people, j
Never until now has the danger
been removed by separating the
streets from the railroads Now,
120 years afterwards, the people of
Winchester and the State of Mass-
achusetts are trying to work out a
solution which shall remove all
danger for all time to come. The
men selected to “run” the town, or
do the office work or whatever you
call it, have spent countless hours
considering and planning, holding
meetings and conferring with en-
gineers and specialists, until they
are about worn out and feel that
the only way out is to accept the
suggestion of some people who have
seen “elevated railroads” in various
cities and therefore are positive
that the only thing for Winchester
is to have the Boston and Maine
Railroad lifted up so high over the
streets so there can he no further
trouble. (The Boston and Lowell
became part of the Boston and
Maine.) This has led to a “plan”
l*cing worked on to actually do
this, and much money has already
been spent in making surveys and
calculations and estimates. Much
opposition has arisen because of the
$(>,000,000 estimated cost and the
harm which will come to all the
business district and in fact to
everyone jvho does not live or have
business at a great distance from
the railroad.
At the Centre the height of the
roadbed is planned to he nineteen
feet, and at Wedgemere station nine
feet, diminishing to zero where the
railroad reaches Medford. This of
course blots out each side of the
town from the other side, because
of the great height, and the pas-
senger trains and freight trains
make the height about thirty feet
higher than the roadbed is now!
So positive and so “worked up” and
so convinced have been those who
cannot think of anything else being
better, or even worth considering,
that they have brought about a
“counting” of those in favor and
those against. A “referendum”.
Now, for your parents’ benefit
as well as yours, 1 am confronted
with the most painful duty of all
my life in this lovely town, (nearly
half a century) and toward which
all I have said before has been
leading: That is, a recital of what
has brought about what is claimed
by those who “would not knowingly
set foot upon a worm” yet arc in
influential positions and are capable
of mature judgment, — a vote to ele-
vate the railroad tracks across the
whole width of Winchester, from
Medford to Woburn. The roadbed
presented to the Boston and Lowell
Railroad in 1881 and whose right
to remain at the same level has
never been questioned! It was
ordered by Massachusetts in 1834
that no roads or streets should he
allowed to cross the tracks unless
they went over a bridge to do it, for
public safety. Nothing was done
about it because everybody felt
safe anyway, and now, in a great
hurry, the selectmen and a com-
mittee organized to create favor-
able sentiment have brought about
the overhead through much adver-
tising and much canvassing. Those
voting Yes were 2,982, and 2,109
said No. That is, a majority of 873!
They claim that if 873 more said
Yes than said No, then the voice
of Winchester has spoken and Win-
chester wants the tracks raised.
Don’t ever believe it! If Winches-
ter had wanted such a misconceived
idea put into effect, all those who
did not vote would have said so.
They were so sure the whole thing
was “cut and dried” they just
wouldn’t bother; some of course
lived so far from the tracks nothing
could hurt them. Few of the select
men or the special committee live
anywhere near the railroad, and so
no matter what injury came to
others, well, what of it! You know,
the business is on level ground at
the bottom of the valley, and the
train noises are carried along the
ground and up the slopes, and have
been gotten used to. The stores,
and many houses, are at the same
level as the railroad. The “raisers”
want to elevate the roadbed to
nineteen feet at the centre, and nine
feet at Wedgemere, a rise of ten
feet in a mile or less. What ex-
press train, or what freight train
j (sometimes covering all that dis-
tance) would not have to tug and
strain and pump and hump, just
to stop at Winchester and start
up again. Every train would
pass at the bedroom, or second

story level, and the people could
do nothing about it. But the mis-
ts and the special committee de-
clare it the ' nly way. Listen care-
fully, and then make up your own
mind: 1 telegraphed Princeton ask-
ing bo expert advice about any in-
crease in sound volume if the rail-
road bed should bo raised nineteen
feet. The answer came: the ctTect
would he three times ns loud as 1
now. An engineer 1 know had con-
sulted a trained acoustician of na-
tional experience, and his answer
was the same, but that nt Highland
avenue it would be still louder.
I believe all those yes-men are
laid wide open to attack. Nothing
I have seen in the papers has re-
ferred to this in any way. Further,
with the exception of the pictures
showing stations and underpasses I
no “elevations” have been shown,
and the angle foreshortens the ap-
parent height, which, whether in-
tended or not, focuses the mind on
the remarkably good draughtsman-
ship lather than the real height.
What buildef. what architect, would
go to work with only a ground plan
and without a plan showing “eleva-
tion”? 1 do not say, and I do not
believe, that there was any sinister
intention. 1 do say, and I do be-
lieve, that those 873 and many more
were led astray. How could they
see through that well-built wall of
granite, nineteen feet high and
just as thick, the layout beyond.
How could even those directing the
public mind away from the losses
and toward the gains know what
they were letting themselves in for
with an increased sound effect
three times ns loud! The ve-
hicular traffic for this year will
probably exceed 30,000 vehicles,
“through” and local. Of necessity
an underpass with such an angle
of approach as the one pictured,
would be practically “blind”. If
the traffic count in 1950 was 20,500,
what may it be in 1900, in 1970, and
later? The voters’ who would
spend $0,000,000 for an “elimina-
tion” of guesswork cannot surely
he interested in the good of their
town as much as in “following the
leader”, etc. If with an open mind
all work together there need he no
crossing. The suggestions made
some time ago and re-iterated on
the 20th by Mr. Mott, have much
to commend them. Take the traffic
off Main street either at Swanton
street or somewhere near it, where
there is plenty of elevation, and
bridge both Loop and Main tracks,
connecting with Washington street
either at the circle or near it. The
Fitzgeralds could put down con-
crete walls and railings in record
time. Then connect up West Main
street with Bacon street by adopt-
ing the plan Mr. Quigley suggested
of a new piece of road between
Waterfield road and Bacon street,
along the railroad. Then, the cross-
ing would not exist and there would
be no gates and bells, but the circu-
lation in the traffic arteries would
be natural and no temperatures
forced to fever-height. Provision
for foot-passengers, underneath, of
course. It is my fervent hope that
the Commissioner, now a resident,
with home and outlook as worthy
as any in this or any near-by town,
will recognize the indignity and dis-
regard of all in such a well-meant
but destructive project, and bring
about delay and re-planning. Talk
of wrong slopes need not be, with
both ends of Highland avenue to
prove it. Why be “defeatist”, with
a Boston more than thirty times as
large in 1903 as the original town.
We will do what we will to do. I
bear in my own body the marks of
other’s disregard of right; my car
has been struck by a three-year-old
darting across from the side-walk;
and I know what flesh is heir to.
If we are determined to preserve
the good and reject what is not,
then this Winchester we are proud
of can remain a home tow,n, with
residents respecting each other and
each other’s rights. I quote: “Who
shall be eyes to the blind?” If a
true picture is sought, and a means
of bettering instead of inflicting on
all what includes much guess-work,
then walk the routes, decide the
practical, the best. Then go on
from there. I am just as confident
that you who try to, will see, as I
was and am sure that when I took
around an inspection party to all
the forts in Halifax, many years
ago, Miss Helen Keller who was
both blind and deaf, did see, by the
personal touch and helpful hand and
fingers of her friend Miss Sullivan,
everything she handled.

A STORY WITH A MORAL MISS CIRIGNANO SHOWERED
The Robert P. Wild of Herrick
fttreet went over to Concord last
Thursday to spend Thanksgiving
with Mrs. Wild’s brother-in-law and
sister, Mr. and Mrs. John Chandler
Hill.
After dinner in the interest of
good physical hygiene “Rob” took
the kiddos for a walk and as they
passed a neighboring farm they
saw some cattle in a pasture.
The cattle were at some distance
and Bob thought it would be a good
idea to get them nearer to his little
party so that the children could get
a better look. To do so he entered
the pasture with his son. Russell, in
his arms and did his best to get the
cattle’s attention.
His best was plenty good enough,
as things turned out, for two good
sized steers not only came right
over, but clearly resented the in-
vasion of their domain.
Bob started to leave the pasture
at speed, but he didn’t miss the re-
ception committee by much, and in
the end he had to toss Russell over
the fence and made a very rapid
leap over the barrier himself.
His landing wasn’t just as he
S lanned it, and he suffered several
ruised and cracked ribs. Russell
wasn’t hurt, fortunately, and Bob,
at last reports, suffered no per-
manent ill effects. The moral, ac-
cording to “Bob”, is never to enter
a populated pasture unless you I
really know your steers!
Mrs. Anthony Chcfalo of 467
Washington street gave a shower
Tuesday evening, at the home of
her mother, Mrs. Nicholas T. Ciri-
gnano, 361 Washington street, for
her sister, Miss Louise Ann Ciri-
gnano, whose marriage to Robert
L. Lee, USAF, of Saugus, is to
take place on December 2G at St.
Mary’s Church.
Thirty-five relatives and friends
attended the shower, for which the
house was attractively and appro-
priately decorated.
The bride-to-be received many
beautiful gifts and after the pack-
ages were opened and Miss Ciri-
gnano had expressed her thanks
refreshments were served and a
social hour enjoyed.
Hostesses were Mrs. Alphonse
Lambiase and Mrs. Peter Lonigro.
Lt. Aidan Underwood is home
on furlough from Fort Sill, Okla-
homa, before reporting to Fort
Kilmer for assignment overseas in
Germany. He is the son of Mrs.
Elizabeth B. Underwood of 34 Ox-
ford street, and brother of Lt. Jerry
Underwood, who has returned to
Fort Knox, Ky., after being in Win-
chester for Thanksgiving. Both
boys graduated from Boston Col-
lege this year.
WHEELER - CROWELL
There is Winchester interest in
the marriage which took place at
the First Parish Meeting House in
Concord on Saturday afternoon,
November 28, when Sliss Barbara
Hall Crowell, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Donald Gibbs Crowell of Con-
cord, formerly of Winchester, be-
came the bride of Harvey Wheeler.
The four o’clock candlelight service
was read by the Rev. Edward Perry
Daniels in an attractive setting of
cymbidium forms, and a reception
followed at the Concord Country
Club where the bridal party receiv-
ed before an antique gold screen
banked with bittersweet and arbor-
vitae.
Given in marriage by her father,
Miss Crowell wore a family heir-
loom wedding gown. Fashioned of
silk taffeta, it had pleated taffeta
ruffles edging the scalloped hem-
line, and a full cathedral-length
train. Her veil and onp of antique
Brussels point lace were held in
place by stephanotis and she car-
ried a bouquet of bouvardia and
Eucharis lilies.
Mrs. Malcolm Young of Lexing-
ton was her sister’s matron of
honor. Her gown of pale gold faille
taffeta had a portrait neckline and
long flared skirt and she carried a
bouquet of Italian wheat, cinnamon
fern and bittersweet tied with a bow
and streamers of cinnamon velvet
ribbon.
The bridesmaids were Mrs.
David Wilcox of New York City;
Miss Jane Garvey of Cincinnati,
Ohio; Miss Joan Dickey of Pitts-
burgh, Pa., and Hyannisport; and
Miss Margaret Barr of Louisville,
Ky. Their gowns and bouquets were
like those of the matron of honor.
All the attendants wore bandeaux
of velvet ribbon in tones of cinna
mon, with aigrettes of wheat.
Mrs. Crowell, the bride’s mother,
wore taupe faille with a hat of
taupe and gold leaves and a cor-
sage of green and white cypripe
dium orchids. Mrs. Wheeler, moth-
er of the bridegroom, was gowned
in French blue brocade with a hat
to match and an orchid corsage.
Charles D. MacPherson of Acton
was best man. The ushers includ-
ed David Wheeler of Reading, Pa.,
brother of the bridegroom; Mal-
colm Young of Lexington, brother-
in-law of the bride; Fessenden
Morse of Wayland; Gardner Edgar-
ton and Frank Coolidge of Con-
cord; and Charles L. Collins of
Lexington.
The bride was graduated from
Westover School and attended Ben-
nett Junior College and the Vesper
George School of Art. She is a
member of the Junior League of
Boston. The bridegroom prepared
at Belmont Hill School and attend-
ed Trinity College, which he left to
become a lieutenant in the U. S.
Naval Air Force during World War
II. After a wedding trip to the
South, they will make their home
in Concord.
THE MYSTIC GLEE CLUB SEPTET
NEW MYSTIC LEAGUE
ENGAGEMENT
Rev. William S. Packer of Yale
street spent Thanksgiving in Wash-
ington with his daughter, Mrs.
Cedric Seager (Gertrude Packer).
He flew down and back, and ac-
cording to his own account, did not
like the experience.
Since the popular Mystic Four
was forced to disband several years
ago due to the migration of Skip
White and A1 Swett to other loca-
tions, there has been a demand for
another group within the club to do
the type of close harmony which
had proved so popular.
Not until this year, however, has
it been possible to find the right
combination of voices to carry on
in the style of that excellent quar-
tet.
Originally organized as the Mys-
tic Glee Club Octette, the group
will operate temporarily as a
septet, since Len Lord, one of its
basses, is presently on a business
trip to the West Coast.
The Glee Club members, having
had a pre-view of the Septet, are
certain that it will prove to be one
of the highlights of the 14th An-
nual Winter Concert to be held in
the Winchester High School Audi-
torium on Saturday evening, De-
cember 12.
In addition to Tom Worthen and
Bill Hopkins of the Mystic Four,
the new group includes Ken Wright
and George Stothoflf, first tenors,
Jack Gilbert, second tenor, Fred
Rozelle, baritone and Dick Jackson,
bass.
Rear Admiral Julian Dubois
Wilson, USN, ret., and Mrs. Wilson
of Hyannis and Washington, D. C.,
announce the engagement of their
daughter, Miss Julianna Dubois
Wilson, to William Foss Thompson,
son of Mrs. William Laban Thomp-
son of Cabot street, and the late
Mr. Thompson.
Miss Wilson is a graduate of
Maryland University, the John
Hopkins University Graduate

\nd also the Committee who set up
‘.he program.
Creation of a separate passenger
service department of the Boston
and Maine Railroad, to he headed
hy Vice-President Robert M. Edgai
of 2 Oxford street, was announced
this week by President T. (». Sugh-
l ue for the purpose of intensive re-
view of passenger services and re-
duction of the annual deficit from
passenger operations.
In making the announcement
President Sughrue stated that the
new head of the Passenger Depart-
ment will have complete authority
to set up an organization capable
of handling traffic, sales and oper-
ations.
“There must be a way to sub-
stantially reduce, if not completely
l eliminate the annual deficit from
passenger operations which has ap-
proximated $12,000,000 a year since
| the war,” Mr. Sughrue said.
“We believe,” he continued, “that
way is to improve our service in
those areas where it is needed and
used, or where a potential for in-
creased use exists, just as much as
it is necessary to curtail or elimi-
nate services operated at losses in
areas where current use is slight
and no potential for growth exists.”
Vice-President Edgar, who was
assigned to head up the railroad’s
new passenger service, is a native
of a Watertown and a graduate of
Dartmouth College with the class
of 1928. He entered the service of
the Boston and Maine soon after his
graduation from college and work-
ed his way up the railroad ladder
through the Traffic Department in
Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine,
and New Hampshire prior to his
appointment as assistant to the
vice-president in charge of traffic
for the Boston and Maine and Maim
Central Railroads. He was ap-
pointed assistant to the president
of the Boston and Maine in 1946
and was elected a vice-president in
1952. He is a director of the Mys-
tic Terminal Company, The Boston
Garden - Arena Corporation, t h e
Boston Professional Hockey Asso-
ciation, and the New England
Council.

The V. F. W. Auxiliary, 3719,
regular meeting will he held Mon-
day evening, December 7th at
Post’s Home. There will be a
Christmas party and a buffet sup-
per will be served with the exchang-
ing of gifts.
Last night, Thursday, December
3, the auxiliary put on at Bedford
Hospital a dancing party for 175
veterans.
“The First Thanksgiving” was
the title of an impressive assembly
presented by the pupils of Miss
Betty Bntchelder’s fourth grade on
Novembet 22. The play opened
with a group of children of today
talking about the brave Pilgrims
>f long ago.
As they talked, the scene changed
to the Plymouth of 1621. Pupils
dressed in the Costumes of the
Pilgrim fathers or wearing the
garb of their Indian friends enacted
the well known stories of that first
year when the little settlement was
struggling for existence. At last
the efforts of the colonists were
successful, and Governor Bradford
gave the order for a great feast of
thanksgiving.
To the appreciative audience of
parents and friends it seemed that
the children had caught the real
spirit of that first Thanksgiving,
when the Pilgrims came to give
thanks for all the good things of
their new life — for a free land
where people might worship as they
wished, for men’s right to speak as
they willed and to govern them-
selves, for food enough and true
friends. As they gathered for the
feast, the announcer asked every-
one to look about him and he thank-
ful for the blessings of today, and
then the children joined in the
Hymn of Thanksgiving.
Members of the cast were as fol-
lows:
Announcer: Walter Scott.
Children of 1963: Thomas Bate-
man, John Clark, Roger Newton,
Stephen Powers, James Iloldam,
John Gigcr, Robert Donlon, Gar-
rett Graves, Gail Towner, David
Taylor.
Pilgrims: Josiah Bacon, Ann
Carleton, Marjory Beal, Edmond
Harrington, Gordon Trevett. James
von Rosenvitige. Margaret Matson,
Bette Lou Brown, Maty Jackson,
Jane Hood, Juliette Mot an, Irene
Loftus. Louise Herron.
Friendly Indians: Ronald Cam-
ara. Malcolm Bennett.
President Raymond Merrill of
the Cooperative Bank, and Mrs.
Merrill have returned to Winches-
t ei from Arlington and are living
at 30 Symtnes toad. The Merrills
were for many years residents of
the Kangely section of Winchester
before moving to Arlington.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
MEN S CLUB
The Men’s Club December meet-
ing bold this past Tuesday evening
at Chidley Hall proved to be both
interesting and highly educational.
Dr. John S. Badcnu, President of
the Near East Foundation, New
York City, spoke on the topic
“Watch the Middle East — World
Danger Zone.”
With the ease that comes with ex-
perience and the conviction of his
knowledge Dr. Badcau presented n
clear and simple picture of the Mid-
dle Enst and the forces at work
there in n manner that all could
understand. Few people could
possibly comprehend this situation
from the current news reports and
nowhere has it been presented in
more concise form.
I)r. Badcau pointed out that the
small interest the United States
had in the Middle East became a
real concern in 1017 with the emer-
sion of the Truman Doctrine. The
stand taken in support of Turkey
and (ireece against possible Russian
aggression made the United States
major influence in this whole area.
There have been tensions in this
area for thousands of years hut in
recent years these tensions have
come to a head. The reasons can
he summed up in three Arab words
or phrases which may be translated
to (1) association (2) order and
(3) food.
The association of the Arab
world with the Western World has
been increased because of the new
Western interests in that area. The
many associations of East and
West because of political and com-
mercial interests has influenced the
Arabs. There is a tendency to take
up Western ideas of nationalism,
self government and individual
freedom of determination.
These very ideas of sovereignty
and independence are behind the
conflicts with the British in the
Suez.
The Isracl-Arab conflict is cen-
tered in large measure now on how
the Western World stands behind
the U. N. resolutions in demanding
Israel should comply. The Arab
World had learned Western ideas
by association but will they be
treated by the Western World in
the way they feel the West would
want to he treated?
The “new order” in the Middle
East is shown by a search for new
ideas of government. This is diffi-
cult because of the high degree of
illiteracy which makes true demo-
cratic government impractical. Old
orders ran not he overcome or con-
ciliated easily.
Dr. Badcau reports that the new
governments arc the result of the
middle ela.-s rising to take on the
leadership to establish new social
justices and individual freedoms.
If these new governments succeed
in satisfying the needs by obtaining
the cooperation of the varied in-
terests the Middle Enst will he
brought closer to the West. Fail-
ure of the new orders will start
new uprisings and disorders in the
East.
"Food” is taken to mean standard
of living. The Middle Enst was
described by Dr. Badcau as a pov-
erty area due to its geographic and
climatic conditions.
While this has been the situation
for thousands of years two factors
arc now causing unrest. First the
association with the higher living
standards of the West have been
brought closer to these people. The
rising birth rate is a second factor
behind this need for a better stand-
ard of living. The peasants are be-
ginning to feel that their lot in this
world should and could he better.
Dr. Badcau said that the solution |
to all this lies with the Middle East
itself. The needs of the Aral)
world can best he met by making
available Western know-how which
will help solve the problem of the
peasant discontent by providing a
continual but simple and gradual
down-to-earth improvement in the
standard of living. That they must
he taught in a friendly and sincere
way to do this for themselves Dr.
Badcau made abundently clear.
Pressure from the Western World
will tend to alienate these people.
The meeting started with a fine
supper at G:30 p. m. A short pro-
gram of music was well received.
The Male Chorus of the Senior
Choir under the direction of J. Al-
bert Wilson who also accompanied
presented four numbers, “Song of
the Jolly Rogers”, “Passing By”,
“Syncopated Clock” and “Brothers
Sing On”.
Miss Dorothy Brandt added a
measure of the spirit of the coming
season by a splendid presentation of
the Christmas song “O Holy Night”
(Carttique de Noel).
Meetings of the Mens Club have
been set for the first Tuesday of
each month through April, so plan
to reserve those evenings.
The program for the January 5th
meeting will he an interesting pop-
ular science demonstration with
members of the Forum as invited
guests. It should be one of the
best meetings of the year.

The fascinating whirl of light
and shadow produced by mobiles
and spotlights greeted members of
the Winchester Art Association on
Tuesday evening for a gala en-
trance into the holiday spirit. The
exhibition, which was brought here
by the efforts of Mrs. Samuel B.
Kirkwood from the Margaret
Brown Gallery, Boston, and the Ad-
dison Gallery of Andover, is one
of the most interesting ever held nt
the library, and its opening aroused
unusual enthusiasm, especially
among the men in the audience.
In addition to the intricate and
delicately balanced leaf and natural
forms kept swinging by well-placed
fans, there were stabiles, which are
sculptural forms similar in plan to
the mobiles except that they do not
move through space. These stabiles
arc made of clear or colored piast-
res or of metals or of combinations
of those, and though interesting, in
general they are less exciting than
the mobiles with their airy grace
or dignified rhythm to emphasize
the beauty of form and color. Al-
most equally charming and start-
ling was a mobile called “The Mis-
creant”; it is a most engaging
sculptural representation of a
hounding puppy with remarkable
grace of form and action.
Accompanying the exhibition was
a movie showing Alexander Calder
at work in his studio making the
mobiles and suggesting by various
feats of photography and sound the
sources for the movements and
shapes involved in mobile sculpture
and the kind of artistic synthesis of
the experiences in life which pro-
duce this form of art through Mr.
Calder’s manipulations.
The Association considers this
exhibition outstanding in every way
and congratulates Mrs. Kirkwood
not only upon having brought it
here but also upon the artistic suc-
cess of the labor in hanging it.
The hostess for the evening was
Mrs. Milton L. Brown who was as-
sisted by Mrs. E. P. Walker, Mrs.
C. F. A. Siedhof, Mrs. Kenneth Hall
and Mrs. A. B. Bailey.
The entertainment committee of
the Winchester Country Club is
sponsoring one of the popular
mixed progressive bridge parties
on Wednesday evening, December
9, with play starting promptly at
8 o’clock. Partners will play to-
gether all evening, and there are
many fine prizes for the high scor-
ers.

J
that December is the most danger-
ous month on our highways. Dur-
ing the past five Decembers, more jpj
than 25, 000 persons hnve been in-
jured, many permanently disabled,
while 332 were killed.
Because motorists and pedes-
trians have been co-operating with
official accident prevention pro-
grams state-wide, the record of De-
cember highway killings has been
reduced from 83 in 1950 to 60 in
1962.
If every motorist and pedestrian
will continue his full co-operation
by displaying greater courtesy,
caution and consideration for others
and will try to promote the spirit
of “Peace On Earth” while on the
highway, we can prevent death and
injury through the prevention of
traffic mishaps and extend our tra-
ditional greeting of “Good Will To
All Men” in Dangerous December,
Registrar King, Chairman of the
Massachusetts Highway Safety
Committee, urges every highway
user to make a special effort to save
lives this month.

Cnstifclione was the bulwark of
the Tanners’ offense and he did
some nice bucking through the big
Winchester line. He also passed
and kicked well, did the kicking ofT
and kicked the points after, an all
around guy.
his quick thinking and reflexes that
enabled him to grab the ball before
it hit the ground and score from
the two.
Coach Paul Dorrington was most
ihappy when his boys just stood
around and let Winchester’s Bill
Jesdale recover that short kickoff
in the second half. The boys ap-
parently forgot about a kickoff be-
ing a free ball, and when you see
some of the things the college play-
ers, and even the pros, do on occa-
sion, lapses by school boys aren't
to be wondered at.
This particular lapse was costly
however, for A1 I indsey scored
from 37 yards out on the next play.
Those in the stands who have been
wanting to see the speedy “Al”
really get out there and run had
their wish on the holiday, and was
he happy! You should have seen
his grin as he crossed that last
white line!
It really was a shame that Cas-
I tiglionc had to be the goat of that
I hobbled interception that gave Win-
chester its fourth touchdown. “Joe”
i never did have possession of t he
ball, but in commiserating with
him you shouldn’t overlook Bellino’s
^ speed that got him in position, and

While every one on the Winches-
ter side of the field got a big boot
out of that final play touchdown
pass from Bill Ross to Nils Nelson,
Coach Knowlton probably got the
biggest kick of all from the kids*
feat. Bill’s father, “Herb”, was a
regular end on Knowlton‘s 1927
team and Hennie and Nils’ father,
Herb Nelson, a tackle, also played
together, though not that year.

Talking of crowds, did you not-
tice the press box? At one time
there were sixteen people in a place
designed to handle six to eight per-
sons. A board of the platform ac-
tually did give way during the half
time period, but fortunately no one
went down with it. Another year
some different arrangements will
have to he made.
Jerry Nason, big boss of the Bos-
ton Globe sports pages covered the
game personally as he usually does
on Thanksgiving, and both Jimmy
Haggerty, editor of the Woburn
Daily Times, and John Gaffney of
the Times staff were in tho press J
box. Both died a thousand deaths
during that pass interception fum-
ble that gave Winchester a touch
down.

We didn’t happen to see either

R. Vincent Hayward, Winches-

careworn side the day before the
holiday, was all smiles at the
weather. He was early at the field

the principal entrance gates to
hear the drop of the dubloons as
the crowd entered the field.

a Rhythmic Candle Processional by

Then the augmented Choir will sing
“Zndok the Priest”. This is the
first of four Coronation Anthems
composed by Handel in 1728 for the
Coronation of George II. and it is
the most famous of the four. Those
who watched the Coronation of
Elizabeth II. last June, or subse-
quently saw the film “A C^ueen Is
Crowned”, will recognize "Zadok
the Priest” as the principal musical
background for the ceremonies
within Westminster Abbey itself,
and particularly for that part of the
service known as the Anointing.
About “The Messiah”, at this
season of the year, little needs to
be said. This is the Christmas sea.
son, this is the Christmas Oratorio,
and the section of it to he presented
Sunday is the Christmas section, or
Part I, and, of course, the Halle-

The soloists will be Dolores

Contralto; John Morabito, Tenor;
and George Fortune. Bass.

THANKSGIVING GAME
What n day for a holiday foot-
hnll panic Thanksgiving turned out
to he. Prognostications during the
entire day before were for rain all
day the holiday and it sure looked
like the weatherman was going to
ho right for a change. As a conse-
quence the bright sunshine was
doubly welcome, and though it was
pretty blamed nippy up in the press
box, conditions elsewhere were
ideal.
stands had a capacity of fi,000 and
there surely were two or mnybe
more thousands at vantage points
around the gridiron.
0.
Considering the heavy rain all
day before the holiday and the
downpour of the previous Monday
the gridiron on Manchester Field
was in great shape, with plenty of
solid turf for running and cutting.
It was a good thing the game was
not at Woburn, for even with the
advent of the sun the stadium be-
hind the high school there would
have been a mudhole.

Though there wasn’t too much
l doubt about the winner, especially
a , ^ ** **, iihaiiU JW after Winchester’s quick touchdown
npilu I (lAAPAN Y ^ in thc thir< * quarter, the game was
ViVlfir 0**0* a good one to watch, and during

We thought the Woburn
School banu was the best the 'fan-
ners have shown at these games,
and the visiting musicians were well I
uniformed. i hey were preceded I
by a phalanx of white uniformed
drum -majorettes who strutted their
stuff up and down the field.
Christmas Greetings
It didn't seem natural to have
the fine Winchester High School
hand play the “Star Spangled Han
nor” from the stands instead of
from the middle of the gridiron to
start off the game, hut the author-
ities evidently figured it would be
better to get the band into their
section in good season. This was
good judgment, and our National
Anthem sounded just as good as
ever as Freddie Felmet and his
scarlet-coated musicians played it.
We noted “Mack” McKenzie, for-
mer Woburn Times reporter, enjoy-
ing the game from a chair provided
for him by Coach Henry Knowlton
near the Winchester bench. "Mack”
has seen a lot of Winchester-Wo-
hurn games come and go and al-
ways get a big kick out of the con-
tests.
Many figured the crowd was the
largest ever to attend a Winches-
ter- Woburn game. The augmented

The holiday game, while fiercely
contested, was very cleanly played,
with no evidence at all of unneces-
sary rough stuff. The boys hit
hard, but fairly and the followers
of both clubs could be proud of
their lads.
Winchester surely missed Jim
Cusack out of the center of its line.
The star guard waited eagerly for
news of the game which was relay-
ed to him just as soon as possible
and the team gave Jim the game
ball, autographed by all the players
and coaches, a fine gesture which
was much appreciated by Jim and
his parents.

Tuesday evening of this week
Coach Knowlton took them to the

what he missed on the holiday.
There were no had injuries
Thanksgiving. Some of the boys
got humped pretty hard, especially
those who got in the way of big

a full head of steam. Those too
who were tackled by Captain John

Add to other fine safeties Win-
chester has had in the past the
name of Joe Bellino. This great
sophomore backfield prospect made
a couple of last-ditch tackles on the
holiday that saved probably Wo-
burn touchdowns, once hand fight-
ing his way through two blockers
to make the kill.
The judges who picked the best
Winchester b a c k and lineman
chose “Mike” Murphy and Danny
Mantini. Not taking a thing from
either boy, it still must have been
hard to pick them over Bellino and
Riordan. And to our mind "Dave”
Pratt, senior quarter-hack, made his
last game in a Winchester uniform
his best.

Wrhnchesler 6*10/ /
Winchester wasn’t too happy
about the officials’ call on the first
touchdown, which Mike Murphy
actually made twice. “Mike” was
easily over on his belt from eight
yards out, carrying a couple of
Woburn boys on his back, hut for
some reason the official calling the
play put the hall hack on the one
and made him try again. This time
there was no question, Murphy
shoving half the line and two-
backers-up into the end zone with
him. It don’t pay to get Mike
iled, ask Wakefield!

MORE ORANGE PEELS
They say the wojves are after
Conch Raul Dofrington at Woburn,
but those who really know their
football feel that the former Arl-
ington and Holy Cross center has
done very well indeed with the
available material and other prob-
lems inherent at Woburn. His
teams have played hard, interesting
and above all, clean football against
Winchester and he is well thought
of here.
Those girl tumblers of Winches-
ter High put on a great exhibition
between the halves and it is too bad
that so many people in the stands
could not see what was really a fine
show. The crowd was permitted
to move freely about the gridiron
during the bctween-the-halves pe-
riod and quickly formed half-circles
around the tumblers, effectively
blotting them from the view of the
lower sents of the stands.
It looked a bit ludicrous to see
the Woburn tenm sitting or kneel-
ing on the wet turf while their
benches were filled with visiting
firemen. We suppose they were all
VIPs but we still think the hoys
rated the benches ahead of most of
the occupants.
For the benefit of those who may
have wondered what Brad Bentley
of Winchester and Camp Wyanoke
was doing with that youngster on
his shoulders between the halves,
lie was trying to get the hoy up
high enough to spot his lost parents
in the crowd. The kiddo was miss-
ing dad and mom and a bit tearful
when Brad and Edna took over, and
the view from Brad’s elevation did
♦lie trick and alTcctcd a mutually
happy reunion.

Mr. and Mrs. Ralph E. Carlisle of
10 Reservoir street had a thrilling
experience early last Sunday morn-
ing when they received a telephone
call from their son, Lt. Allen M.
Carlisle, USA, in Tokyo, Japan.
Lt. Carlisle, who is with Photo-
graphic Interpretation Intelligence,
is presently on a rest and recreation
leave in Japan. He put his call
home through exactly six months
from the day he landed at Inchon in
Korea, where he has been on active
duty.
His parents were called by an
operator in Los Angeles, Cal., Sat-
urday morning and told that their
son would call them after midnight
Sunday morning. Needless to state
the Carlisles were ready and wait-
ing, and they report that their son’s
voice came through perfectly.
They got the call at 12:45 Sun-
day morning and their son informed
them that he called them in Japan
at 2:45 in the afternoon.

MID PROSPECTS
FM "JOCKO” 0000
Edward “Jocko” Sericka is one
of the outstanding prospects in the
Southeastern Conference, says
Conch Murray Warmath of Missis-
sippi State College, where the Win-
chester youth is a student. “Jocko”,
who is planning a coaching career,
is enrolled in the School of Physical
Education.
Mid-semester grades, recently
tendered, show that he is a good
student. He is a non-commissioned
officer in the Marine Corps Officer
Candidate’s Program and upon
graduation will he commissioned a
second lieutenant in the Marine Re-
serve.
Early in the season “Jocko” was
transferred from the freshman to
the varsity training squad, where
he started three freshman games.
In the Louisiana State University
game he made the most spectacular
play of the day, a 58 yard kickoff
return, and was a star player
throughout the game.
“We expect great things from
this natural football player, and
Mississippi is already hanking on
his baseball ability.” Coach War-
math commented. * 5
“Jocko” is the son of Mr. and f m *- m ± ^ ^ m M ft
Mrs. John .1. Sericka of Middlesex ~ ~ T '
street. At Winchester High he I
played the outfield and caught on
the baseball team and was one of,
the best running hacks in the his- ;
tory of Winchester football.

mer well-known resident of Win-

Dr. Adolphus B., and Imogene
(Mosher) Gunter. She was born in
Charlestown January 28, 1886, and
was educated at Girls Latin School
in Boston and Abbot Academy in
Andover, from which she gradu-
ated in 1904.
She was married June 20, 190ft,
und spent the first years of her
married life in Seattle, Wash., com-
ing to Winchester in 1921. Until
Mr. Dabney's death January 1,
1949, she and her family lived* on
Manchester road. She was a mem-
ber of the Unitarian Church, the
Women’s Alliance of that church,
the Winchester Women’s Republi-
can Club and a former member of
the Fortnightly Women’s Club.
After her husband’s death Mrs.
Dabney went to make her home
with her daughter, Mrs. John II.
Jordan, at 2ft9 Summer avenue,
Reading. Besides Mrs. Jordan, she
leaves a son, Francis L. Dabney of
Omaha, Neb.; six grandchildren;
two sisters, Mrs. Kdythe Derby of
Winchester and Mrs. J. A. Garfield
Jeannottee of Freeport, Maine.; al-
so a brother, Channing Gunter of
Lowell.
Cremation took place Monday af-
ternoon at Mt. Auburn Cemetery.
Private memorial services were
held at the late residence on Tues-
day afternoon.
89th BIRTHDAY
Mr. George 11. liamilt..* , long a
widely known resident of Winches-
ter, observed his 89th birthday
Wednesday at the Home for Aged
People. He received a shower of
cards and other messages of con-
gratulation, and also a visit from
his daughter, Mrs. Martha Tib-
betts, who came down from her
home in Concord, N. II., accompa-
nied by her daughter and two
grandsons.
Mr. Hamilton went out to dinner
with Mrs. Tibbetts and her family,
and during the afternoon had an-
other visitor, Capt. Robert S. Ham-
ilton, USAF, newly home from an
18-months tour of duty in French
Morocco. A birthday cake at sup-
per and other visitors during the
evening rounded out a pleasant day
for Mr. Hamilton, who is out every
day and in good health despite his
advanced age.

mas Day at the Schubert after a
long run on Broadway. Miss Might,
who left Bette Davis’ show, “Two’s
Company”, to assume the role of
the Salvation Army Doll in “Guys
and Dolls” last March has achieved
a real success in big time show
business since she played in “Gen-
tlemen Prefer Blondes” commenc-
ing in August of I960.
She had been in New York for
two and one-half years previous to
that, studying voice, dancing and
dramatics after graduating from
Winchester High, Colby Junior Col-
lege and the Popular School of the
New England Conservatory of
Music.
After “Gentlemen Prefer
Blondes” Sue played 16 weeks in
the Don Ameehe Show on TV be-
fore joining the cast of “South
Pacific”. Then followed an engage-
ment at the Papermill Playhouse in
New Jersey where she played Bian-
ca in "Kiss Me Kate” and Julie in
the immortal “Show Boat”.
A lot of water has gone over the
dam since Sue was attracting at-
tention in high school vaudeville
and Winton Club shows in Win-
chester. She is definitely the local
girl who has made good on Broad-
way in the toughest competition in
show business.
Sue will be practically playing at
home when her show opens in Bos-
ton on the holiday and undoubtedly
many of her friends and former
classmates, as well as those who
remember her dad as a lusty ban-
joist and mellow bass in the old
Phi Delta Quartet of bygone days
will grasp the opportunity to see
and hear her.

With the largest registration of
motor vehicles this year in the his-

ing to an increased registration for

their nearest branch offices and get
their 1954 certificates of registra-
tion and windshield stickers, — and
number plates, if required, — over
the counter, in preference to mail-
ing their applications to the main
office.
We cannot guarantee delivery of
certificates or plates before Jan-
uary first on applications received
in the mail after December four-
teenth.
The Registry has provided more
than 20 branch offices scattered

ing motorists to take advantage of
it.

WINCHESTER IN
NEW PLANNING DISTRICT
A bill to set up a metropolitan
planning district composed of Wo-
burn and Winchestei and forty-
four othei cities and towns in tin*
Greater Boston Area was filed in
the State Legislature last week.
The bill was drawn up by the Re- .
gional Planning Committee of the
Greater Boston Area Council under j
the leadership of John Hnrkness,
an architect from Lexington, John
T. Howard, at M.I.T. professor of
planning from West Roxbury, and
Charles Hoar, a professor of law
at Harvard Law School who is from
Cambridge.
The proposed bill would set up ,
a division of metropolitan planning j
within the Metropolitan Districts >
Commission to devise a master j
plan for the physical development
of the district and provide planning
services, upon request, for the
member cities and towns. A metro-
politan planning council would be
established with a representative
from each member city and town
as well as five appointees of the
Governor and a representative of
the metropolitan agencies already
in existence, such as the Metro-
politan Transit Authority and the
Mystic River Bridge Authority.
This council would review the re-
ports and proposals prepared by
the division and recommend pro-
grams of research relating to the
physical development of the Great-
er Boston Area.
Jerome Lyle Rappaport, execu-
tive director of the GBAC’, declared
upon announcing the filing of the
bill that it has become increasingly
apparent that there is a desperate
need for a planning agency which
can integrate the efforts and en-
courage the cooperation of all the
cities and towns in the Greater
Boston Area, all of which are es-
sential members of one economic,
transportation, -and social com-
munity. There is today no master
of development that governing offi-
cials can look to as a guide to judge
the beneficial effect of immediate
capital improvements, he continued.
Thus we have, Rappaport ex-
plained, an arterial highway held
up in mid air while engineers try
to work out a compromise as to
the best way is should leave Bos-
ton. This same kind of compromise
produced a four-lane rather than a
six-lane embankment road, which
already, one year after its opening,
is overcrowded at rush hours.
We will not solve the major eco-
nomic, transportation and recrea-
tion problems of the metropolitan
Boston communities, Rappaport
tionsaid, without continuing pro
fessional advice and continuing co-
operation and planning in their mu-
tual interests by all the cities and
towns in the Greater Boston area.
This bill could begin a significant
new era in Greater Boston’s his
tory, he concluded.
The cost of a metropolitan plan
ning division within the M. D. C.
would be borne fifty per cent by the
Comonwealth and fifty per cent by
the member cities and towns, as-
sessed one-half based on popula-
tion and one-half based on property
valuation. The Research Committee
of the GBAC estimated that expen-
ditures in the first year would not
exceed $30,000.

OLDEST POLICY
A history of the insurance busi-
ness would have to include an ac-
count of bottomry, a form of ma-
rine insurance believed to have been
developed by the ancient Phoeni-
cians. The information service of
Employers Mutuals of Wausau,
Wis., explains that bottomry Avas a
system in which a shipowner ob-
tained a loan on a ship and cargo.
If the voyage Avas completed, the
borrower repaid the loan at a high
interest rate, but if the ship was
lost, he paid nothing.

Last week I thought I had the
pleasure of witnessing a remark-
able piece of howling, which I did,
hut you cun’t trust this new young
! blood we have this year. Young
Joe Riga who was not to he un-
done howled a beautiful string with
remarkable accuracy to the tune of
152. Another job well done by a
member of the S. O. I. It’s won-
derful to see Mr. Riga and his sons
bowling, they set a tine family ex-
ample.
As you know our teams bear
names of tine Universities and
Georgetown is one of our finest.
The bowlers who do honor to this
name whose standing should he in
a better position than they are con-
sists of Tony Saraco, last year’s
champion who just can’t seem to get
started. A1 DiMinico who can’t
understand why he’s not doing bet-
ter. Richard Giacalonc who expects
to improve now that his brother
“The Jeep” has taken him in hand.
Fred LaTorella could do much bet-
ter if he would take the barrels out
of his pockets. Joe Dilorio one of
the most conscientious bowlers on
the team. Richard DiTesso, Sr., a
newcomer hut gives his all.
Whispers and comments heard
around the alley. Is it true that
there are 59 Italians and one high
class Turk in the howling roster?
It is believed by many that he is
the power behind the screen. Sen.
McCarthy to investigate this angle.
Heard that the humane society
having read the item in regards to
“Vocci’s suckling pig”, took it upon
themselves to send a vet to check
his health. Report! No need to
worry. I’ig deaf. Heard if Dorn
Provinzano bends over any farther
to bowl he’s going to he minus the
tip of his nose. Will Costi Cuillo
exhale so he can bowl. Ever since

effectiveness of his practice.
Mr. Folkeis’ second invention
deals with methods <>f finishing tex-

yarns or filaments. These fabrics
may be made of cotton or of syn-
thetic threads such as rayon; and,
in accordance with Mr. Folkeis’
system, they are treated with small
amounts of a potentially resinous
substance which provides them with
a crisp and permanently stiffened
finish, improved dimensional stab-
ility and good tensile strength.

Mi Rogers introduced Mr. Har-
lan I Paine, Jr., the administrator,
who added his best wishes to these
students of “high calibre who bad
pleased everyone and done a suc-
cessful and competent job”. He
i said that the Hospital is depending
on them to continue in the respon-
sible work that they are doing.
Mi Rogers also introduced the
chairman of the Nursing Commit-
tee. Miss Ruby Willis, who brought
the greetings of the Board of Trus-
tees.
The class then presented Miss
Rogers and Mrs. Mullee with
charming corsages and invited them
to be their guests for dinner that
night. Coffee was served by the
members of the Nursing Commit-
tee, Mrs. Harold French, Mrs.
Theodore Brown and Miss Willis.
This occasion brought to a close
flu* second such group training. It
proved again the wisdom of the
Hospital in providing worthwhile
occupation for public spirited and
able women. It also proved the
wisdom of providing an addition to
the nursing team that relieves pres-
sure «m the graduate nurse and en-
ables the Hospital to give the pa-
tients all the care and service that
their comfort requires? The non
graduate nurse, always remember-
ing her limitations, has become a
very important part of the present

CHRISTMAS PREPARATION
The pastor and members of the
Crawford Memorial Methodist
Church are in the midst of plans for
the special Christmas services.
Perhaps the most important change
will be the two services to he held
on Christmas Sunday. The first
service will be at 9:30 a. m. and the
second service at the usual hour,
10:45. The services will he very
similar with the exception of abbre-
viations.
The Christmas Eve service will
he at 11 p. m. This has come to be
one of the high light services of the
year as evidenced by the enthu-
siasm and attendance. It has be-
come a wonderful experience to see
several hundred people in a double
circle around the church, on the
platform and around the altar at
the midnight hour, with lighted
candles, welcoming in the first mo-
ment of Christmas morn to the
words and tune of “Silent Night,
Holy Night.” Both the Junior and
Senior Choirs will assist and the
pastor will bring the meditation.
Members and friends of the com-
munity are most cordially invited
to share in this high point of the
Christmas season.

SUPPLIES IN BLOOD CENTERS
VERY LOW
A critical situation has developed
in the Boston area in the last few
weeks. The supplies of blood in
the blood centers and in the hos-
pitals in the greater Boston area
are very low and in some cases
completely empty.
Our own Winchester hospital was
in need of blood one day last week
situation, and at best it is incon-
venient for the patient, doctor, and
hospital involved.
In addition to this great need in
civilian hospitals, blood is still ur-
gently needed and being sent to
military hospitals here and over
seas.
So call the Red Cross office today
(Winchester 6-2300) and make
your appointment with the Red
Cross Bloodmobile when it is in
Winchester, Monday, December 14.
Let’s show ourselves and the metro-
politan area that the residents of
Parents, d,IUr«,._ teachers and | ™djrhen ^ | Winchester not only appreciate. the
officers of the Sunday School will
meet Santa next Friday, at the send out here until the late after-
Christmas party for the children, noon when the Bloodmobile would

School Superintendent will he in nities. The need at our hospital
charge and a special program is be- was for four pints. The blood even-
ing prepared. ter was able to supply only two
1 pints.
This incident certainly shows the
Ex-Selectman Morris B. Kerr of dire need for the public to rise to
the Winchester Arms has been a this crisis. Operations are being
patient at the Phillips House for delayed in all the hospitals until
the past ten days. He is reported the blood necessary can he obtained,
as getting along nicely. Sometimes this creates a critical
great need for blood but are willing
to do something about it.
Roll up your sleeve and come to

THE WINCHESTER, MASS., STAR. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 11, 195.1
'THE FORTUNE TELLER-
PRESENTED BY H S. CAST
Victor Herbert’s melodies came
to the stage of the high school au-
ditorium last Friday and Saturday
evenings as a high school cast pre-
sented "The Fortune Teller” to
capacity audiences. Weeks of re-
heat sing by members of the com-
bined Glee Clubs and Curtain and
Cue under the direction of Miss
Kleanor Anifantis and Mr. Thomas
Morse were amply rewarded by per-
formances which many in the en-
thusiastic audiences would have
termed brilliant for young uma-
teu rs.
In the opinion of some, the sing-
ing of the choruses was the out-
standing feature of the operetta;
to others, the acting and singing of
principals was the most satisfying.
All enjoyed the dancing of the bal-
let groups. Another noteworthy
feature was the manner in which
the large cast handled itself in the
limited area of the high school
stage. Miss Anifantis. Mr. Morse,
and their assistants deserve high
praise for the over-all excellence of
the show, and it is to he hoped that
four years will not pass again be-
fore another will he presented.
The story of "The Fortune Tell-
er,” revolving uhout the disappear-
ance of a winning lottery ticket and
the attempts of the commandant of
the secret police of Livonia to re-
trieve it, is entirely inconsequential,
as is that of most operettas. It
does, however, serve to bring to-
gether some grand singing and
dancing combinations — tin* Grand
Opera Chorus and Ballet, the gypsy
hand, and the Livonian Hussars.
The setting for the show is the ter-
race of Count Berezowski’s chateau,
whither the Count has invited mem-
bers of the Grand Opera Ballet in
an effort to secure his lost lottery
ticket. As the Count, John Swazey
remained faithful to the musical
comedy conception of a commissar
of the secret police as a pompous,
blustering buffoon. Seth Weston
more than once stopped the show
with his superb characterization of
Fresco, the dandified yet resource-
ful ballet master.
Among the singing principals
Louise Orgettas, as Musette the
gypsy gill, brought unusual power
and maturity of voice to her songs,
especially "Romany Life”. "In
This World of Fashion”, her duet
with Chris Adams, was also notable.
As the stalwart Captain Ladislaus,
Chris was convincing in a demand-
ing role. His songs with the Hus-
sar chorus added a stirring military
touch, while his duet, "Only in the
Play,” with Barbara Hickey( Ma-
dame Pompon) was a droll bit, well-
liked by the audience.
Connie Snelling, Fresco’s "kit-
ten”, beloved by Ladislaus yet
sought by C o u n t Berezowski,
brought a pleasing voice and viva-
cious manner to her role. Her song,
"Always Do As People Say You
Should”, was delightful. Musette’s'
gypsy lover, was well-played by
Brad Johnson, whose best moments
came as he sang the beautiful
"Gypsy Love Song”. Roland Gail-
itis. as Musette’s rough and mer-
cenary father, seemed especially
good. The other principals, Nancy
Fletcher, Barbara Katon, Nancy
Samarco, Renner Johnston, Jon
McCarthy, Stanley Mullen, and
Quentin Robert, handled their
smaller roles very creditably.
Adding to the color and move-
ment of the operetta were the
dances by the ballet and gypsy
group. Barbara Hottel’s original
dances, as well as her solo number,
were well-conceived and executed.
The music of "The Fortune Tell-
er” deserves fine playing, and that
it received from the small ensemble
composed of Mr. Theodore Janner,
violin; Gretchen Luitwieler, drums;
and Stephen Dunn, trumpet; who
added their effects to the duo piano
team. Mr. Walter Russell was at
one piano, while Jock Willis and
Judith Fowler shared the other.
Assisting Miss Anifantis and Mr.
Morse in the production were two
practice teachers from Sargent,
Miss Claire Loughlin and Miss Con-
stance Porter. Miss LaVerne
Baker, u student at the Boston Con-
servatory, helped with the dance re-
hearsals. Costumes were under the
charge of Miss Mildred Barnes,
Miss Marian Bernhoft, and Miss
Florence Wolk. Miss Louise Cone
supervised the ticket sale, Mr.
Frank Weafer was in charge of the
ushers, and Mr. Raymond Hayward
was business manager.
The indispensable stage crew
was composed of Ted Mansfield,
tagf manager; and Roger Hauck,
Dann Lewis, and Gardner Smith.
Handling the mnke-up. a gargan-
tuan task with a cast this size, was
Paul Planchet, who was assisted by
Sheila Gallivan, Carol Brown, San
dm Chapman, and Jane Adams.

H. S. SPORTS ASSEMBLY
Members of the fall sports teams
received their awards at the ath-
letic assembly on December 4, when
the girls field hockey and boys’
cross country teams shared honors
with the football men. Presiding
at the assembly was A. A. pres-
Dennis Doucette, and the
principal speakers were coaches;
Alildred Barnes, Thomas Morse, Ed
Burns, and Henry Knowlton.
As the first speaker, Coach
Morse described vividly the rigors
of cross country, and he praised
his team for its courage and per-
sistence. He especially noted the
outstanding record of Lou Farrell.
At the conclusion of his remarks,
captain John Becker announced that
next year’s team will have as co-
e iptains, Dick Borggaard and Lou
Farrell.
Making her first appearance at
an awards assembly, Coach Barnes
paid warm tribute to the sports-
manship and cooperative spirit of
the girls on the field hockey squad.
Captain Alison Hersey stated that
Dorothy Pratt has been elected to
serve as team captain for the 1954
season. As coach of freshman
football, Coach Burns recalled sev-
eral of the more humorous episodes
of the past season before reading
the list of freshman numeral win-
ners.
In his remarks to the assembly,
Coach Knowlton took the occasion
to publicly thank all of the people
coaches, trainers, managers,
b; nd members, cheerleaders, and
others who helped to make the
past season so successful. He
praised the junior varsity for its
stalwart role as opposition for the
varsity. Of the "big boys” he said
that never in his years of coaching
has lie worked with a more willing,
cooperative team. Big John Rior-
di n f dlowed with an announcement
that Mike Murphy will he next sea-
son’s captain; that the choice was
mightly popular could he seen from
the applause of the student body.

where he was for four weeks un-
dergoing treatment for severe in-
juries sustained when he caught
his left thumb and forefinger in a
paper-roller at his place of em-
ployment. Three grafting oper-
ations were necessary together
with the amputation of his thumb
at the first joint.
Gordon wishes through the Star
to thank his many friends for their
gifts and other remembrances, and
above all, for their encouragement
which meant so much to him while
lie was in the hospital.

K of C CHRISTMAS PARTY
Sunday, December 20th, is the
date of the Winchester Knights of
Columbus annual Christmas Party
for children of members and their
guests. There will be movies for
the youngsters, with candy and ice
crenm, and of course, Santa Claus
himself, with his message of cheer
for all the boys and girls.
Advocate John Dolan is chairman
of arrangements with a large com-
mittee to assist him in insuring that
all the young people have one of
the grandest times they have ever
had. It would not be a Christmas
. Party without Carols, so of course
this feature will be much in evid-
dence. Members are asked to re-
mind their children that they are
invited to the party.
At the recent Council meeting
Chairman John Mulrennan of the
House Committee made his report
which was a fine, concise statement
eliciting favorable comment from
the membership present. A mes-
sage was read from Brother Tom
Parsons thanking the Council for
their remembrance of him during
his illness. The Council hopes that
Officers and Members journed to
Dedham last Sunday evening to pay
their own and the Council’s respects
to the Dad of Ohancelor Vin Erhard
who passed away Friday, Decem-
ber 4th. Included were Grand
Knight John Nowell, who also at-
tended the funeral, P. G. K. Harry
Boyle; I). G. K. Jim Mown; Record-
ing Secretary Harry Bennett; Ed-
die Quill; Financial Secretary Fran-
cis Fisher; Warden Tom Gramzow.
SEATS RESERVED
FOR ALL HOME HOOP GAMES
The Knights are very proud that
their organization has sponsored
the microfilming of more than 40,-
000 documents in the Vatican Li-
brary. This will make available to
scholars for the first time, priceless
writings on art, religion, medicine,
science and philosophy.
IN COLLEGE PLAY
Harold K. Quigley of 30 Westley
street, has a supporting role in the
annual production of the Drew For-
esters, undergraduate dramatics
group at Drew University. The
play, Shakespeare’s “Henry VIII,”
is being given Wednesday, Friday
and Saturday nights this week.
A graduate of Winchester High
School, Quigley is a sophomore in
the College of Liberal Arts at
Drew.
HOLIDAYS
COMING
And That Means Work
It means work especially for the housewife who has to wash
all the extra linen, the table cloths, napkins, extra sheets and
the thousand other things which get soiled with large meals and
many people in the house.
Make it a real holiday and send those hard-to-do
articles to us — and enjoy your holidays.

— Same Owner-Management Since 1909 —
At a recent meeting of the high
school athletic authorities, plans
Were completed for hnndling the
home-game ticket problem, which
during the past three or four years
has increased steadily because of
the growing popularity of the game
and the excellent record of the
home team. Everyone likes to
watch a winner, and Winchester
has lidded a winning basketball
team.
With a very limited seating ca-
pacity in the school gymnasium,
only a portion of those who would
like to attend night games can be
accommodated. Last season an ex-
periment with adult season tickets
was fairly successful. This season
all seats in the gymnasium will be
reserved seats of all home night
games. In addition, season tickets
for home games may be purchased
in advance, assuring the holder of
having the same seat for each
game and saving him from coming
early to get his seat. Standing-room
admissions will be limited to thirty
per game, and will be put on sale
on the night of the game only after
all seats have been sold. About
twenty-five per cent of the total
number of seats will be offered to
the visiting school in advance of
the game. Any such tickets turned
back will he on sale the night of
the game at the door.
Reserved seats for single games
and season tickets for all home
[ games may be ordered now by
| phone or by mail or through stu-
I dents at the high school. Phone:
; Winchester (>-0141. Address mail
I orders to Norton Demsey, Winches-
ter High School.
The total number of reserved
j scats for adults is seventy-six
scats. Those who wish to take ad-
vantage of Ibis plan should get
their orders in as soon as possible
The home schedule of night games
is as follows:
Dec. 11 — Arlington, Friday eve-
ning
Dec. 23 — Wellesley, Wednesday
evening
Dec. 30 — Melrose, Wednesday
evening
Jan. 15 — Belmont, Friday eve-
ning
Jan. 20 — Reading, Friday eve
ning
Feb. 10, — Stoneham, Friday eve-
ning
Mar. 5 — Woburn, Friday eve
ning
Each night there will be both a
varsity game and a second-team
game. Second-team games start at
seven- thirty p. m.

JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP
THE WINN LIBRARY
A notable gift from Arthur L.
Winn, Goidon alumnus of the class
of 1803 and Trustee since 1037,
makes possible the erection on the
new Princemere campus of the
Winn Library, the first of four new
major buildings authorized by the
Trustees of Gordon College at the
annual meeting of the Board. Mr.
Winn’s gift is the largest of his
benefactions to Gordon. Being
vitally interested in many Christian
and Christian education projects, be
has contributed generously to Gor-
don.
Until his retirement from busi-
ness he was one of the owners of
the J. H. Winn Sons Company of
Winchester, Mass. His genuine
sincerity, quiet humility and splen
did business capabilities have made
him a valued member of the Board
of Trustees. He is also a highly
esteemed member of the First Bap-
tist Church in Winchester.
The Winn Library, which will
have a capacity of 100,000 volumes t
will he the College Library build-
ing. The other buildings to be
erected at this time are the admin
istration building and two major
dormitory units. Six of the build-
ings now on the 1,000 acre campus
are presently being used by Gordon
Divinity School. The four new
buildings will enable the College
also to be located on the new cam-
pus.
Mr. Winn’s generous and sacri-
ficial gift is the first of a consider-
able number of large gifts that will
lie needed to complete the develop
mont program foreseen by the Gor-
don Relocation Fund.
The new campus development
program is an attempt on the part
of the Trustees of Gordon to meet
the increased demand upon us to
supply evangelical Christian minis-
ters for churches in New Fngland
and across the nation and trained
Christian leaders in business and
the professions.
T. Leonard Lewis, President.
Ed. Note: Mr. Lewis is president
of Gordon College.
On Friday evening, December 11,
from 7:30 to 10:00, the Junior High

tional Church will hold a dance in

orating of the hall will be done by i

thia Dunn. John Curtis, Bob Coo-
per, Tim Reynolds and Phil Poll-
ard. Refreshments will be in
charge of Cynthia Dunn and Sue
Hambly. Tickets may be obtained

and Martha Fish.
Chaperones for the evening will
he Mr. and Mrs. W. McHenry
Browne, Mr. and Mrs. Frank B.

liam Kimball.

THE FORTNIGHTLY
LITERATURE COMMITTEE
Under the direction of Mrs.
Blanche S. Barnard, chairman,
members and guests of the Liter-
ature Committee met Monday
afternoon, December 7, in the
Public Library.
Miss Eva M. Sherman rend an
excellent paper on “Taylor Cald-
well”, starting with a biographical
sketch of the author’s life, then
giving a brief review of her books,
having rend eleven of them. All
are character novels with historical
backgrounds, much detail being
given and a great deal of interest
shown in industry and politics.
However, hatred seems to dominate
these books as well as abnormal
characters. And so, although not
all pleasant reading, Miss Caldwell
is a good story teller and it seems,
is trying to impress and warn the
public of the pitfalls in national
politics and industry as well as in
their private lives.
Mrs. Frank Evans opened the
meeting with a delightful review of
“Uncle Victory” by Louise Hall
Tharp, which is a biography of
Horace Mann, a constant crusader
for free education and the develop-
ment of educational institutions
who spent the greater part of his
life in New England.

SACHEMETTES UNDEFEATED
For the second year in a row, the
girls’ field hockey team came
through the season undefeated,
with 5 wins and 2 ties to their
credit.
The forward line was sparked by
left-inner and Captain, Alison
Horsey, who scored 9 of the 15
goals made all season. Helping
along the cause, and always there
when needed, were Wings Jan
Graves and Marilyn Dyer. Inners
Dianne McNeil anti Betty Ann Hag-
gerty, und Center Sue Donnell were
indispensable to the team.
The defense was equally strong
defending the goal, as the forwards
were attacking it, as shown by the
fact that in 7 games only 4 goals
were scored against them. Half-
backs Judie Higgins, Marty Hal-
loran and Sally Cunninghum were
in a big way responsible for the
scoring, as well as the defensive
success, by keeping the Dull fed
to the forward line at all times.
Defending the goal was left to the
two fullbacks, Sheila Gallivan and
Peg McNally, and Goalies Nancy
Gail llandford and Nancy Morse,
all of whom did a good job of it.
At the annual award assembly
the varsity was awarded their
charms, silver hockey sticks, and
next year’s varsity captain was an
nounccd. J)otti«* Pratt, left fullback
of the J.Y.’s this year, will be the
captain of next year’s girls’ field
hockey team.

THANKS FROM RED FEATHER
1 Salisbury street
Winchester, Mass.
December 7, 1953
Editor of the Star:
May I have the opportunity
' through your paper to express my
appreciation to the workers in the
1 954 Winchester Red Feather Cam-
paign ?
Seven hundred Winchester peo-
ple joined efforts to solicit contri-
butions from all the homes, stores,
and businesses in town for the sup-
port of the over 300 Red Feather
agencies of Greater Boston, includ-
ing Winchester’s own six agencies.
The $50,200 raised to date,
though short of our goal of $59,800,
compares favorably with last
year’s excellent record of $56,000.
Every faithful worker may take
pride in his unselfish part in a
worthwhile cause.
Arthur W. Pratt,
Winchester Community Chairman
P.S. Let me also thank the Star
for their patient and careful pub-
lishing of pictures and publicity
material submitted from time to
time during the campaign
A. W. P.
Every once in a while the Board
of Assessors gets into a spot be-
cause of laws which they have no
hand in framing but which they are
required to enforce. Our Board has
been warned by the Department of
Corporations and Taxation that
they must assess a personal prop-
erty tax on non-residents of the
town, and that it may be that non
residents should also pay tuition
for their children who attend the
Winchester schools. Non residents
are persons who live in Winchester,
but for one reason or another, have
their legal address and pay their
poll taxes elsewhere, perhaps in an-
other state. Residents of Winches-
ter now' enjoy a $5,000 exemption
for personal property, which means
that very few pay a personal prop-
erty tax in town.
Every so often the Star has to
publish its policy with regard to
communications sent to the paper.
They must be signed by the writer
and have his address if we are to
publish them, though the name and
address need not be printed if the
writer for any reason does not wish
them to appear with the letter. It
is our personal opinion that unsign-
ed letters carry little weight, but
at the same time we can under-
stand a reluctance to make one’s
identity known in some instances.
This week we received two com-
munications, one concerning the
grade crossing and the other pick-
ing an all time Winchester High
School football team. Neither
communication was signed, so
neither is being published. In the
case of the honorary team we es-
pecially regret our inability to
print it, for it is provocative and
would undoubtedly have aroused
comment, from football fans, both
favorable and unfavorable. So,
correspondents, sign your letters if
you want them used. We must
know where a letter is coming from
before we will print it in our
columns.
THIS IS THE SITUATION
Editor of the Star:
Two weeks ago an advertisement
appeared in The Star for a Movie
Review Series, presented by the
Mothers’ Association of Winches-
ter, to benefit the Winchester
Scholarship Foundation.
Many tickets are sold to the
wonderfully civic-minded people of
Winchester, and I should like to
explain just what the situation is
this time.
This benefit is the project of the
Ways and Means Committee of the
“Central Board”; and it is custom-
ary to turn over the entire net pro-
ceeds to the Scholarship Found-
ation, reserving only $100 for next
year’s committee to work with.
The “Central Board” is the gov-
erning board of the Mothers’ Asso-
ciation, in the individual school
chapters of which are automatic-
ally enrolled all mothers of children
in the elementary, junior and senior
high schools, whether or not they
pay dues. Officers of the Associa-
tion, committee chairmen, and
presidents, past presidents and sec-
retaries of all chapters are mem-
bers of the “Central Board”, which
is directly responsible for the co-
ordinated money raising event for
the Winchester Scholarship Foun-
dation, originated by the Mothers'
Association, and to which all chap-
ters also contribute individually.
ANOTHER IDEA FOR CHRISTMAS
Editor of the Star:
May I enjoy a brief space in your
valued paper to convey to shoppers,
young and old. converging on the
center of Winchester during these
busy days to traverse the shopping
area, a fervent Christmas plea for
clean streets, highways, and alleys?
Sometime ago, the Park Depart-
ment gave priority on the list of
each day’s jobs to the cleaning of
the area of the center. Shall we
appreciate their efforts nnd lend a
helpful hand with a joyous Christ-
mas spirit, and continue it beyond
the immediate confines of the shop-
ping district into our very homes
by refraining from scattering small
hits of trash along the sidewalks
and larger ones on the highways?
Choristers around our community
Christmas tree, I hope a clean and
beautiful Common will greet you
on Christmas Eve. A Merry Christ-
mas to all, and thank you.

SELF-GOVERNING PUERTO RICO
SPURRED BY NEW INDUSTRIES
Autonomy and industry are
marching forward together in
Puerto Rico.
Now in its second year of United
States Commonwealth status, the
crowded Caribbean island has rais-
ed employment 25 per cent in the
last decade. National income has
doubled, and per capita income is
up 10 per cent. More than 150
newly established plants turn out
textiles, toys, lenses, shoes, Christ-
mas-tree ornaments and many
other products.
Job Shortage
With a population density match-
ing that of New Jersey, Puerto
Rico has long been plagued with
unemployment, says the National
Geographic Society. Lack of arable
land and natural resources has
further handicapped its economy.
The island produces only half its
food requirements.
Puerto Rico is the eastern anchor
of the Greater Antilles chain of
West Indies islands. Its 2,250,000
inhabitants are squeezed into 3,436
square miles. Among American
states and territories, only Rhode
Island has more persons per square
mile.
The island’s precious soil is in-
tensively cultivated from tin* shores
to the summits of its 4,000-foot-
high mountains. Sugarcane is the
major crop, sugar production aver-
aging about one million tons an-
nually. Before new businesses
came in from the mainland, four
major industries — sugar process-
ing, needlework, tobacco, and rum

— accounted for 75 per cent of
manufacturing employment.
Puerto Rico’s population has
doubled since 1898, the year Spain
relinquished its four centuries of
rule to the United States. Spanish
is the language of the people, but
English is common in business and
government.
In 1917, territorial status brought
U. S. citizenship to Puerto Ricans.
On July 25, 1952, the island became
a self-governing Commonwealth. A
new constitution, approved by the
U. S. Congress and President, put
the 100-mile-long island's internal
affairs completely in the hands of
its elected lawmakers. The way is
left open for Puerto Rico to be-
come a state in the Union later if it
desires.
Columbus Discovery
Puerto Rico means “rich port”.
It is the only land under the Amer-
ican Hag on which Columbus set
foot. Landing there on November
19, 1493, during his second voyage,
he claimed it for Spain.
San Juan, the capital, is the old-
est city in the new world under the
Stars and Stripes. It was estab-
lished in 1610, a half century be-
fore St. Augustine, Florida. With
a 1950 population of 224,767, it is
second only to Ilavanu among
Caribbean cities. The island's
principal port, it handles most of
Puerto Rico’s $250 million exports
and $400 million imports annually.
Although Puerto Rico lies within
the tropics, the island enjoys a per-
petually springlike climate. Mean
annual temperature is a mild 75
degrees. Ocean breezes sweeping
across the mountains from the cool
North Atlantic temper the heat.
Flowers bloom the year around.
The island’s healthful climate
and natural beauty have made
tourism a leading industry. In
1951-52, 98,000 visitors spent almost
$17 million in Puerto Rico.

QUEEN TO CIRCLE GLOBE
ON COMMONWEALTH TOUR
Queen Elizabeth II, who hold a
symbolic golden orb during her
coronation ceremonies last June,
will girdle the globe itself during
a 60,000-mile royal tour beginning
November 2,‘C
The young queen and her hus-
band, Philip, Duke of Edinburgh,
will see areas of the British Com-
monwealth never before visited by
their ruling monarch. It will he
the first time in history that a
reigning British sovereign has
traveled completely around the
world, says the National Geogra-
phic Society.
Fly To West Indies
The royal couple will fly first to
Bermuda, then to Jamaica, Britain’s
largest West Indian colony. There
they will meet officials of other
British Caribbean possessions ami
see mementos of the English sea j
heroes, Rodney and Nelson, as well 1
as of Jamaica’s pirate-governor
Henry Morgan.
American citizens will have an
opportunity to see them when the
liner Gothic takes them through
the Panama canal bound for the
Fiji and Tonga Islands in the Paci-
fic north of New Zealand.
In the British-owned Fijis, once
a land of cannibals, the Queen will
witness South Sea Island pag-
eantry, participate in ancient
rituals and receive gifts of whales’
teeth, Fijian tokens of honor.
Coral islets ruled by their own
“king”, descendant of the Scottish
seafarer who first settled them, will
be the next stop. These are the
Cocos or Keeling Islands in the In-
dian Ocean.
From there the Gothic will sail to
Ceylon, latest Commonwealth coun-
try to attain full self-government.
An 11-day stay, during which
Elizabeth will observe her 28th
birthday, will include tours of an-
cient ruins and modern develop-
ments amid Ceylon’s tropical jun-
gles and cool highlands.
Return To Africa
Nearing Arabia, the Queen will
leave ship at Aden, where guns
thundered for George V en route to
his Indian crowning in 1911. There
she will hoard a plane for Africa,
where she interrupted a previous
tour upon the death of her father,
King George VI, in 1952.
I In Uganda, between Lake Vic-
toria and the Ruwenzori Mountains,
Queen Elizabeth will dedicate an
important Nile River dam. At
Tobruk, Libya, scene of British
gallantry in World War II desert
fighting, she expects to meet King
Idris of Libya, monarch of the
world’s newest kingdom. Then she
will hoard the new royal yacht
Britannia for Britain’s Mediterra-
nean strongholds of Malta and
Gibraltar and finally home to Buck-
ingham Palace.
Queens Will Meet
Elizabeth will repay a queenly
cell at the Tonga or Friendly
Islands, which are under British
protection. Tall Queen Salote of
Tonga, last remaining South Seas
monarch, was a popular guest at
Queen Elizabeth’s coronation. The
Polynesian queen will in turn be
Elizabeth’s hostess at the Tongan
capital, Nuku’alofa.
Queen Elizabeth will broadcast
her Christmas message to the Com-
monwealth from Auckland during a
38-day tour of New Zealand. She
will open a special session of Par-
liament at Wellington, the capital,
and will see 42 other New Zealand
towns and cities on the two big
Pacific islands.
Five thousand Maori tribesmen
plan to welcome her at Rotorua in
the hot springs district of North
Island. She will visit nearby Wai-
tangi, lit by myriad glowworms.
Australian Tour
From New Zealand’s South Is-
land, the Queen and Duke will sail
to Sydney, Australia, for a two-
month, 14,450-mile tour of the is-
land continent, twice visited by
Philip while in Navy service. Eliz-
abeth, recently given the specific
title of Queen of Australia, will
open Parliament at Canberra. As
Duke of York, her father in 1927
opened the the first Parliament held
in the present capital.
The monarch will also go to
Queensland, visiting the state’s
main city, Brisbane; to Melbourne
in Victoria; to Australia’s “little
sister” island of Tasmania, where
scenery and climate resemble that
of England; and to Adelaide, South
Australia. Other places on the
schedule include the mining center
of Kargoorlie and the city of Perth.

WHO'S AN UNDERWRITER!
Although the term “underwriter”
today refers to the employee of an
insurance company who examines
a policy risk, in early times it re-
ferred to the person who signed his
name under the insurance contract.
The information service of the Em-
ployers Mutuals of Wausau, Wis.,
explains that in the early days of
the business, insurance policies
were written only by individuals,
known as “underwriters.”
NEW INSURANCE HIGH
The year 1952 established an all
time record for the sale of each of
the major types of insurance —
life, fire, and casualty — according
to the information service of Em-
ployers Mutuals of Wausau, Wis.
Men have walked to the North
Pole, have flown there by dirigible
and airplane. In 1932 an Austra-
lian polar explorer, Sir George
I Hubert Wilkins, set out to cross the
Pole beneath the Arctic icecap by
submarine. He was turned back by
mechanical difficulties aboard his
undersea boat, the “Nautilus,” and
I never repeated the attempt.

CANSO CAUSEWAY
MAY BE OPENED IN 1954
The Canso Causeway, projected
first land link between Cape Breton
Island and the rest of Nova Scotia,
may be ready for road and rail
traffic next year.
Hitherto all traffic has crossed
the narrow Strait of Canso by
ferry, reports the National Geo-
graphic Society. The first of these
was established in 1883. But from
January to April each year, boat
schedules were sometimes inter-
rupted by ice in the Strait.
The ever-increasing importance
of Cape Breton Island both as va-
cation land and seat of industry
dictated construction of the $22,-
800,000 causeway.
Highlands National Park, cover-
ing 390 square miles on the north-
ern end of the Island, may receive
as many as 35,000 visitors a year.
Mines in the Sydney area, some of
them extending four miles out un-
der the Atlantic Ocean, annually
produce 5,000,000 tons of coal. Part
is used in huge nearby iron and
steel mills.
As from the very beginning, fish-
ing is a major Cape Breton in-
dustry. Fish may have attracted
Norse sea rovers who knew about
the Island as early as the 10th cen-
tury. Basque fishermen may have
given it its name 100 years before
Columbus discovered America.
John Cabot claimed it in 1497 for
England.
Of all the ports on the Atlantic
seaboard, those of Cape Breton are
nearest the shipping centers of
Europe, Africa and South America.
This, coupled with the Island’s
strategic position commanding the
entrance to the St. Lawrence River,
brought the French and British in-
to prolonged battle for its posses-
sion.
Before the American Revolution
erupted, England’s American col-
onists helped her crush French
power on Cape Breton. The final
blow was the leveling of Fort
Louisburg, France’s “impregnable”
bastion.
After that, settlers poured in
from the Highlands of Scotland.
Their descendants still speak Gaelic
and keep alive the tradition of the
Highland Games. A few Islanders
descend from the Acadians, whose
expulsion from the Nova Scotian
mainland in 1755 gave Henry
Wadsworth Longfellow the theme
for his poem “Evangeline.”
Ancient Cape Breton has played
its part in modern scientific dis-
covery. At his Beinn Bhreagh es-
tate near Baddeck on the salt lakes
of Bras d’Or, Alexander Graham
Bell, inventor of the telephone, ex-
perimented with airplanes, fast
boats and agriculture.
The first successful Atlantic
cable was landed at Cape North in
18G7. The first airplane flight in
the British Empire was made in
1909 over the Lakes by J. A. D.
McGurdy, who had worked with I)r.
Bell. In 1902, a radio station on
Cape Breton Island received the

INSURANCE 4,000 YEARS AGO
How old is the insurance busi-
ness? The information service of
The Employers Mutual of Wausau,
Wis., reports that the first record
of a transaction resembling insur-
ance is found in the (’ode of Ham-
murabi, written in 2250 R. C. A
section of the code reads “If a man
has a debt upon him nnd a thunder-
storm ravaged his field or carried
away his produce, or the corn has
not grown through lack of water,
in that year he shall not return
corn to his creditor; he shall alter
his tablet and shall not give in-
terest for that year.”
INSURANCE BENEFITS
How to keep up with the rising
cost of hospital care is a major
problem for insurance companies
which write accident, sickness, hos-
pital, medical, and surgical insur-
ance, it is reported by Employers
Mutuals of Wausau, Wis. Last
year the premium volume of com-
panies writing these types of in-
surance was some 15 per cent over
the record total of 1951.

HOSPITAL
SERVES WIDE COMMUNITY
The wide community served by
Winchester Hospital is indicated by j
statistics in the Hospital’s annual
report for the year ended Septem-
ber HO, 1953, showing that of 4,094
patients admitted 2,897, or nearly
three-fourths, were from towns
other than Winchester. The total
of towns represented ran to a total
of 121.
President Gilbert H. Hood, Jr., of
the Hospital’s board of directors
reports a net operating loss for the
year of $01,779.71. This resulted
largely from the inability of the
Hospital to operate to full capacity
during the entire year because of
extensive remodelling work making
many beds unavailable for regular
use.
Mr. Hood states that funds in
the hands of the Hospital’s trustees
increased by $03,428.01 during the
fiscal year, bringing the total to
$342,285.07. Explaining that the
endowment funds have been set up
on a basis of shares similar to an
open-end trust, he pointed out that
this permits the trustees to operate
the total endowment funds as one
account and thus spread the risks
and profits equitably among all the
funds.
New gifts received during the
year included the following: $50,000
from Jere A. Downs, $5,974 from
Elizabeth Downs Wadsworth, $1,000
each from Howard Torrey and
Charles F. Dutch. In addition, the
Hospital benefitted by gifts in ser-
vice and equipment.
“As always,” the report states,
“many organizations and individ-
uals made numerous gifts of serv-
ice and equipment during the year.
All that these loyal friends gave
helped greatly to make a better
Hospital. In our gratitude for
their highly valued assistance we
regret that space in this Report —
limited for economy — does not
permit listing their names.”
The report describes the Open
House of last spring as “an enthus-
siatic community effort in the best
tradition of suburban America.”
With further reference to the
Open House, the Report goes on to
say, “The doctors, nurses, office
workers, technicians, aides, dietary
stair, along with the housekeeping
and maintenance staflf were the
actors — not to mention the many
patients who volunteered to be part
of the exhibit. They were aided by
the Boy Scouts, En Ka, the friends
of Winchester Hospital, the Girl
Scouts, the Red Cross, the Winton
Club, the Winchester Hospital
Alumnae Association and many
others, including the police and fire-
men of Stoneham, Reading and
Winchester.

Library Visits
Pupils in Mrs. Walsh’s class re-
cently enjoyed a visit to the Win-
chester Public Library. They were
greeted by the children’s librarian,
Miss Russell, who gave an inter-
esting account of some of the won-
derful new books that are available
in the children’s library. At the
conclusion of her talk, she compli-
mented the class on its attentive-
ness. Then she led them upstairs
to visit the beautiful Jere Downs
music room. Miss Russell was much
interested to hear about the “apple
tree” which the class made for its
room at school. Every time a- pupil
makes a hook report another apple
is added on the tree. During Child-
ren’s Book Week several other
classes from the Lincoln School al-
so visited the library.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU! is the happy
greeting of the children who form the real live, sing-
ing Christmas tree at Morgan Memorial in Boston.
The youngsters represent fifteen nationalities and they
send Yulctide greetings in their various languages
to the friends of Morgan Memorial,
The work of the special commis-
sion appointed by Governor Hertcr
to report on the state teachers col-
leges was discussed by Mrs. Louis
Fletcher, u member of the commis
sion, at a general meeting of the
League of Women Voters of Win-
chester held Wednesday, Decem-
ber 2, at the home of Mrs. Roswell
G. Boutwell, 23 Sheffield road.
The aim of the commission was
to examine the facilities a\ailahle
in the state teachers colleges and
to determine how best to meet the
need for teachers in the coming
years, according to Mrs. Fletcher.
It is estimated that Massachusetts
will have fifty eight per cent more
children in the public schools in
1959, which will necessitate from
fourteen to twenty-two per cent
more teachers, said Mrs. Fletcher.
She also pointed out that the state
department of education needs
4,000 new teachers each year, while
in 1952 there were 791 teachers
graduated from the state teachers
colleges. The report of the special
commission, which will bo publish-
ed shortly, suggests the need for
more comprehensive study, and
recommends one of the properly
equipped, out-of-state groups to do
the work.
Mrs. Leonard C. Meade, chair-
man of the education committee of
the Winchester League, introduced
Mrs. Fletcher, and expressed the
League’s particular interest in tin*
subject due to the participation of
Mrs. Howard Aiken, and Mrs. Wil-
liam Spaulding, both Winchester
League members, in a previous stu-
dy of state teachers colleges con-
ducted by the League of Women
Voters of Massachusetts.

Representative Henry E. Keenan
of Arlington has filed legislation
for the coming session of the Legis-
lature calling for further reclassi-
fication of drivers under twenty-
five years of age. It will be recall-
ed that the Representative spoke
before the Insurance Commissioner
earlier in the year when the Auto-
mobile insurance rates were up for
a public hearing and at that time
spoke out against the blanket class-
ification of all drivers under the
proposed rates for 1954.
His proposed legislation calls for
at least six reclassifications; name-
ly, those in that age group who are
owners and drivers and married
and have family responsibilities;
those who use their cars in going
to and from their place of employ-
ment; those who have a car simply
for family use. Also credit for
those who attended qualified auto
driving schools and obtained li-
censes under competent instrution
land have been accident free since
i the time of receiving their licenses.
Further reclassification will un-
doubtedly he proposed at the time
nf the hearing on legislation based
<»n further statistics being com-
piled by the Representative from
state records and records being ob-
tained from other states.

Trophy for the season of 1952-63
was then awarded by the League
President to Winchester and Wake-
field as co-winners of this coveted
honor for the past season.
The most spectacular event of
the evening was the foul-shooting
contest won by Have Pratt of Win-
chester, the first Winchester player
to win this contest in the four-year
history of this annual event. The
eight schools sent their best foul
hooter into this contest as Pratt

shot 16 out of 15 and Turloff of
Stoneham dropped 14 out of 16 to
win the qualifying round. There
was considerable pressure ns the
two boys lined up at opposite ends
of the main court for the final round
but Pratt snnk 13 out of 15 to win
over his Stoneham rival who wilted
a bit under the pressure. It was a
groat exhibition of foul shooting by
Pratt who had mndo good on 28 out
of .30 under highly competitive con-
ditions.
The final event of the evening
was the all-star game between the
Reds, coached by Ted Bartlett of
Winchester, and the Whites, coach-
ed by Mel Wenncr of Belmont.
Players from Stoneham, Melrose,
Wakefield, and Belmont made up
the Reds while Lexington, Concord,
Reading, and Winchester contrib-
uted players to the Whites, Win-
ner’s Whites nosed our Bartlett’s
Reds .34-3 1 with a spirited second
half rally but your observer feels
that Coach Bartlett was not too un-
happy as Winchester stars Joe I>i-
lorio, Buddy McKinley, and Dave
Pratt played a large part in the
White’s victory. All in all, it was
a memorable evening to local sup-
porters who saw a lot of basketball
and many well deserved honors
come to Winchester High School
and its representatives.

At last Friday’s award assembly
at high school big Mike Murphy,
jolting fullback on this year’s rug-
ged football team, was announced
as captain of the 1954 eleven. At
the same time Lou Farrell and Dick
Borggaard were announced as cross
country co-captains for next fall
and Lottie Pratt, as field hockey
captain. Mike Callahan was an-
nounced as permanent captain of
the freshman football team.
Murphy’s election to the football
captaincy will be popular with all
followers of Winchester football,
for big Mike has been an important
cog in the offense and defense of
this year’s club. As a matter of
fact it would be difficult to deter-
mine whether his bull-like rushes
or murderous tackles have meant
the most to the team.
This is Murphy’s first year as a
regular, though lie saw quite a bit
of service last year, due to the ill-
ness which plagued the regular full-
hack, Jimmy Griffin, all season.
This fall Murphy clinched the
fullback slot in practice, started the
disaste rous Concord game and con-
tinued in the position all fall, im-
proving gradually. He commenced
to look good against W’inthrop,
found himself in the Melrose game,
when lie softened up the entire Mel-
msc backficld with his rack-up tac-
kles, and he blossomed into star-
dom against Wakefield.
With the usual improvement to
he expected next year, big Mike
ought to be bad news for the In-
dian’s opponents.
Both Lou Farrell and Dick Borg-
gaard have meant much to the In-
dian harriers, the former as a bril-
liant race-winning front runner and
Borggaard as a steady plodder who
could be depended upon to finish in
the first ten.
Farrell has broken the local
course record and won the State
Class I) individual championship on
November .3, finishing second in the
Pilgrim Divisional meet and third
in the Massachusetts Cross Coun-
try League championship race at
Tufts.
Dottie Pratt, sister of Dave
Pratt, quarterback on the football
team for the* past two seasons, has
played steadily at left fullback on
this year’s field hockey team. She
is a junior and her election, a popu-
lar one. Mike Callahan played
halfback on the yearling eleven
which does not elect its captain un-
til after the season closes.

HIGH SCHOOL HOOPSTERS
PLAY OPENER
The 1963 edition of the Winches-
ter High School basketball team
will be unveiled tonight at the high
school gym as the Indians enter-
tain a strong Arlington High quin-
tet. This is the strongest opening
game opponent the Red and Black
has tackled years and indicates
the growing stature of the Indians
in the basketball world. Arlington
has been the Suburban League
champion for the past two years
and, as such, has competed in Class
A of the Tech Tournament. Faced
with such formidable opposition in
its opener, the Indians will know at
the close of activities tonight what
kind of a season they can anticipate
this winter.
With only co-captains Joe Di-
Iorio and Dave Pratt, both for-
wards, available as a nucleus, Coach
Ted Bartlett has a huge rebuilding
job on his hands as he attempts to
mold a fourth consecutive Middle-
sex League champion. Along with
these two veterans, only Jim
Wright has clinched a starting
berth as pivot for this quintet. The
two guard positions are wide open,
waiting for any of four candidates
to assert themselves and thus nail
down these vital positions. Battling
for the guard berths are seniors
Buddy McKinley and Paul O’Brien,
Winchester 6-1931
junior Lou Farrell, and sophomore
I Joe Bellino. Big John Lynch has
worked himself into the contention
for a varsity position and it is ex-
pected that these eight performers
will make up the varsity squad.
Others who have shown consider-
able promise and will continue to
press the first eight on the varsity
squad are Charlie Stevens, Bill
Ross, Peter Gove, and Bert Knee-
land. Surviving the pre-season
cuts and making up the junior var-
sity team are Niles Nelson, War-
ren Goodnow, Boh Smith, Frank
Dattilo, Mark Apsey, Renny John
ston, Rich Rimbach, and George
Stratton. Boh Willing and Bill
Hosmer have been named as co-
managers of this year’s team.
It seems hard to belive that the
basketball season is at hand but
the boys are ready and anxious to
( test their strength against such
admittedly strong opposition. The
Indians held a full-game scrimmage
at W’atertown on Wednesday after
noon and the word from the Arsenal
Town was that the locals are a typi-
cally Bartlett-coached quintet with
plenty of aggressiveness and al-
ways hustling. The junior varsity
game will get underway at 7:30 to-
night and another season will make
its initial entry on the record hooks.

CURLING STARTS
Three evening sessions at the
Country Club, Brookline, have
started the curlers off in grand
style. The pleasing part (to the
old curlers) is the many new faces
and the enthusiasm shown.
All of this is, of course, in prepa-
ration for the new Winchester rink,
which everyone can now see going
up between the tennis courts ami
the dub house. Last Tuesday eve-
ning the new “freshman” curlers
included Everett Knox, Bill Cros-
ton, Harry O’Brien, Gene Pacetti,
Ray Holds worth, Jock Page, War-
ner Clifford, Everett Stone and
Charlie Vanner. Additional new
curlers attending this past Tues-
day will he reported next week. The
“demand” to go over to try out the
game is so good that is seems as-
sured there will he plenty on hand
to help the 40-odd “old” curlers
open up the new rink in grand
style.
Howard Etoson, a veteran of the
trip to Scotland two winters ago
and a great trip-goer to all the
U. S. and Canadian bonspiels, is
the curling chairman this year. He
is both a line and most enthusiastic
curler, so no better selection could
be made to lead off for the new
rink.
Irving Jennings is chairman of
the building committee, with Joe
Dolben secretary. The other mem-
bers are John Joy, Larry Burke and
Ed Garrity.
A policy und planning committee
has been formed this year to lead
the way in trying to make things
interesting to the new, enlarged
curling group and to see that the
new curlers, especially, have a good
time. This committee includes such
old curlers as Howard Eteson,
chairman, John Joy, Geof Neiley,
Frank Lane, Dan Morse, Fritz (’ra-
ven, Charley Waghorne, Shorty
Carr and any of the “originals”
who have a good ideu and want to
be heard.
An hour’s practice, between 7
and 8 p. m., and then a short game
is the general schedule at Brook-
line until our own rink is ready.
Anyone interested in curling and
so far not contacted should get in
touch with any of the above policy
committee.

UNITED WORLD FEDERALISTS
The Winchester Chapter of U.
W. F., held a meeting December 7,
at the home of Mrs. .Cutler B.
Downer to hear a report given by
Miss Alice A. Main on the Copen-
hagen Congress, where a joint ses-
i sion of the World Movement for
: World Federal Government and the
j World Association of Parliament-
arians met to consider U. N. Char-
ter revision.
Delegates from 27 countries at-
tended the week-long conference
where among many recommend-
ations the following were note-
worthy.
1. In place of the present Gen-
eral Assembly a World Legislature
shall he established to consist of
two chambers — one called the Coun-
cil of States — the other called the
Council of Peoples.
2. The Charter shall provide for
complete simultaneous universal
and enforceable disarmament.
3. The Charter shall provide for
a U. N. Inspectorate charged with
the supervision of the disarmament
plan and for a U. N. Police to en-
force provisions of the Charter.
Rev. Donald Harrington has writ-
ten, “It has been a moving and
thrilling experience over the last
six years to see this great world
federalist effort grow from a small
and diffuse collection of rather im-
practical idealists, and dreamers in-
to organizations which include not
only many members of the world's
parliaments but ministers and offic-
ers of governments some of whom
undoubtedly will be official dele-
gates to the U. N. Charter review
conference if it is held in 1955.”
The winter program of the U.
W. F. in Winchester will center on
a study of the review and revision
of the U. N. Charter.

HOME FROM KOREA
William C. Regan, Jr., electronics
technician, 2 c, son of Mr. and Mrs.
William C. Regan of 7 Russell road,
is a member of the crew of the des-
troyer, 1JSS Brown, that returned
from a third tour of duty in Korean
waters November 18, docking in
San Diego, Cal.
While engaged in shore bombard-
ment during her second tour of
duty, tin* Brown came upon a small
boat filled to near sinking with 37
Korean refugees. The men, women
and children were taken aboard,
treated and later transferred to a
command post behind the front
lines.
M.S.P.C.A. OFFERS HINTS
FOR CHRISTMAS GIFT PETS
Dr. Eric H. Hansen. President of
the Massachusetts Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
180 Longwood avenue, Boston, yes-
terday urged everyone to exercise
due caution, before giving animal
pets for Christmas gifts.
“Make sure, first of all,” stated
the Society official, "that the animal
will have a good home and will re-
ceive the best of care. There should
he one person in the household who
is willing to take full responsibility
for the animal’s welfare so that he
will have proper food and sleeping
quarters. It it is a child, well and
good, hut nothing should be left to
chance, for a youngster may prom-
ise faithfully to care for his new
pet, and then turn to something
else, thereby neglecting the animal.
For this reason, an older person in
the home should personally super-
vise the creature’s care.”
Dr. Hansen concluded with the
statement that in giving a pet for
Christmas, the donor should bear
in mind that the recipient may not
he familiar with the diet and habits
of animals and, therefore, full in-
structions for its care and treat-
ment should accompany the gift
pet. In this connection, the So-
ciety has offered to cooperate by
furnishing free literature on the
care and feeding of animals, which
may he obtained by writing to So-
ciety headquarters.
RECEIVED

Mrs. Charles A. Hart, was awarded

Vermont Academy fall sports ban-
quet held on December 5th, at Sex-
ton River, Vt.

The team averaged 31 points per
game.
GIRL SCOUT NEWS
SERVICE PROJECTS
All Winchester Girl Scout troops
are engaged this month in commu-
nity service projects. Some troops
have already sent Christmas pack-
ages to servicemen who will be on
the high seas at the holiday season,
through the Winchester Chapter,
American Red Cross. Others are
collecting toys, games and clothing
for distribution at Christmas.
Leaders are reminded that all gifts
for this project must he in to the
Scout Office by December 18, un-
wrapped in a carton marked with
the ago and sex of the child.
Holiday Skating Parties
The Program Committee is mak-
ing plans for two skating parties
to he held in the morning of De-
cember 29. The Brownie Scouts
will roller skate at the Bal-A-Roue
in Medford with their leaders ar-
ranging transportation. The Inter-
mediate and Senior Scouts will ice
skate at the North Shore Sports
Center in Lynn, and their leaders
are reminded that reservations
should he telephoned in to the Scout
Office, so that bus transportation
can he arranged.
Troop Registrations
There are still a few troops due
to register. The council registrar,
Miss Constance Lane would like to
have every troop registered by De-
cember 15. Bring or send registra-
tion forms to the Scout Office.
Mentioning the importance of
youth movements throughout the
world, and emphasizing how the
Nazis and the Soviet.* use their
youth for accomplishment of their
ideological and propaganda aims,
Mrs. Cart stressed the great value
| to democracy of our Girl Scout
work and teaching.
The National Organization puts
emphasis on two aspects of the
work: 1. development of the spir-
itual side of Scouting, and 2, teach-
ing of citizenship by giving real
and practical aid on service pro-
jects within the community.
She spoke of the versatility of
leaders, their capability and devel-
opment of new skills, training a
whole new generation to approach
new things in a venturesome way;
the gradual breaking down of pre-
judices and building of new under-
standing as Girl Scouting includes
all races, creeds and colors, teach-
ing us that there is only one race,
“the human race"; and that citizen-
Mrs. Cart Spoke
Mrs. Dwight L. Cart, in speak-
ing to the Girl Scout Association
Meeting at the Cabin, said two out-
standing qualities show always in
the attitude of adults working in
Scouting: a spirit of fun, and also
a definite sense of responsibility.

MISSION OVER KOREA
FROM THE POSTMASTER
"No one,” says Postmaster
Thomas .1. Gilgun "is ns busy those
days as the average postal em-
ployee, unless it’s the average
housewife. I doubt if either will
have time to think twice about any-
thing before Christmas rolls
around.”
It’s true, Mrs. Homemaker. So
true that it will pay you many
times over to follow the Postmas-
ter’s advice on how to mail your
Christmas cards and gifts correctly
— the first time!
For example, the Post Office has
little interest in how pretty your
gift packages are wrapped. But it
is definitely concerned about how
well each parcel is wrapped.
Postmaster Gilgun warns that,
"The Christmas mail will he heavier
than ever this year. If your gifts
are fragile, mark them ‘Handle
With Care.* We’ll do our best to
protect them.”
Ho also suggests you select a
mailing carton of corrugated fiber-
board. Use a heavy wrapping paper
and strong cord tied over and under
several times. Christmas seals and
"I)o Not Open Until Christmas”
stickers should he placed on hack of
the parcel, so the address remains
easy to read.
The package itself may not ho
sealed, unless the return address
and this inscription appear: "Con-
tents, Merchandise — May he open-
ed for postal inspection.”
Both the sender’s address and
that of the recipient should be
written inside of the mailing car-

ton, for emergency use. Limits on
size and weight this year vary ac-
cording to destination. Ask about
them when you visit the Post Office
to buy stamps.
Right now is the best time to buy
your stamps. The crowds are small,
especially before 10 a. m. or be-
tween 1:80 and 8:30 p. m.
As for Christmas cards, the
Postmaster strongly recommends
that everyone, "Forget the two’s
and use the three’s. With a three-
cent stamp Christmas enrds are
sorted and delivered first, and they
will be forwarded or returned if
necessary.
"That eliminates any worry
about whether your Christmas
cards went astray, provided they
did carry a return address. Also
you can write a personal message
on them, when only a signature is
authorized at the third-class rate.”
Delivery of your Christmas cards
can be speeded up, too. Just tie
them in two separate bundles, and
attach the special labels marked
"All For Local Delivery” and "All
For Out-Of-Town Delivery.” These
tags can be picked up at the Post
Oflice, and you’ll find other helpful
mailing instructions printed on
back.
If you begin now, there’s plenty
of time for delivery by Christmas
Kve. Christmas cards going to
other states should he posted be-
fore December 15, those with local
addresses at least a week before
Christmas.
Parcel post requires more time.
So mail your out-of-state gifts by
December 5, and the local ones by
December 10. After these dates arc
past, better use air mail service for
both gift packages and Christmas
cards.

WATSON HOME
Pfc. Charles E. Watson, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. Watson
of Salisbury street, who is present-
ly home on 36-days leave, spent 15
months in Korea and had not been
home for 17 months when he ar-
rived in town recently.
His three-year enlistment is up
next September, but accumulated
leave will probably get him out of
the service before then. At the ex-
piration of his present leave he re-
ports to Fort Devens January 5
for reassignment in this country.
Charlie, former Massachusetts
State interscholastic tennis singles
champion and Maine State singles
titlist while a senior at Bowdoin,
was a member of the doubles team
that won the tennis championship
of the 8th Army while in Korea.
The tou nicy was played during
three weeks right after the truce
was signed, and marked the first
time Watson had played tennis in
two years.
Charlie was attached to the 3rd
Signal Company of the 3rd Infan-
try Division while in Korea and for
several months previous to the
truce was driving a jeep from a
Signal Corps message center.
POST OFFICE OPEN
SATURDAY AFTERNOON
Postmaster Thomas J. Gilgun
announces that on next Saturuay,
December 12, 1953. the local post
office will be open for business all
day. The stamp and parcel post
windows will be open at 7 a. m. and
will remain open until 6 p. m.
The following Saturday, Decem-
ber 19, 1953, the post oflice again
will open at 7 a. m. and will stay
open until all patrons are taken
care of.
An analysis of iron products
which were made at the country’s
first successful ironworks at Sau-
gus, Mass., shows that the iron
does not differ greatly from that
made today.
FROM THE POSTMASTER
It isn’t that Postmaster Thomas
J. (iilgun can’t wait like the rest
of us for jolly old Santa. But he’d
be the happiest man in town if to-
morrow were December 25.
Instead, there’s still 13 days be-
fore Christmas, and nobody knows
how many tons of Christmas cards
and gift packages are yet to come.
"Our main problem right now,’’
the Postmaster noted today, "is
that too many people are waiting
to mail everything at once. We
know what’s coming. But we don’t
know when.”
Put yourself in the Postmaster’s
place. You’ve just hired a group
of temporary postal workers.
You’re expecting packages. Big
packages, little packages. Neatly-
wrapped and poorly-wrapped pack-
ages. Some insured, some regis-
tered.
There will he Christmas cards by
the thousands. Yes, and the final
count may total millions. From
past experience, you know that the
job gets bigger and bigger each
year. What would you do?
Postmaster Gilgun has worked
out his own answer, lie asks the
public to cooperate, by following a
few time-saving suggestions:
"Wrap and mail your gifts two
or three a: a time. Don’t lot them
pile up on you now, or at the Post
Office later. Begin with those to
he addressed to distant states.”
This year all parcel post going
out-of-state should be mailed by
December 5, for local delivery by
December 10. Size and weight
limitations now in effect vary ac-
cording to destination. Ask about
them when you visit the Post Office
to buy stamps.
In some zones, for example, par-
cel post may not exceed 72 inches
in length and girth combined and
*10 pounds in weight. While in
others the combined length and
girth may he 100 inches and the
weight up to 70 pounds.
"The important thing to remem-
ber about Christmas cards,” says
Postmaster Gilgun, "is to send them
by first-class mail, and place your
return address on the envelope.”
With a three-cent stamp, y >ur
Christmas cards will be forwarded
if the addressee has moved, and a
new address is on file, or returned
if the addressee cannot be located.
Christmas cards mailed first-class
also may carry written messages,
a popular Yuletide custom.
What’s more, Christmas card en-
velopes smaller than ‘J b” by 4" or
larger than 9” by 12" must carry
three-cent stamps. For they require
s p e c i a 1 treatment. Christmas
cards addressed to other states
should be posted by December 15.
Those addressed for delivery with-
in the state by at least a week be-
fore Christmas.
"Delivery of Christmas cards can
he simplified for us and speeded up
for you,” the Postmaster concluded.
"Just tie them in two separate
bundles, with the addresses facing
one way.”
"Then attach t’ne special labels
that indicate ‘All For Local Deliv-
ery' and All For Out-Of-Town
Delivery.’ These helpful tags can
he picked up at the Post Office
merely for the asking, and will be
available throughout the holiday
season.”
BAD ACCIDENT
ON CAMBRIDGE STREET
Another bad accident took place
on Cambridge street Sunday morn-
ing shortly before 1:30 when a
Studebakcr coupe, owned and driv-
en by Richard Crowther of 87 Re-
vere street, Boston, a student at
M. I. T.. while headed south, veer-
ed to the left of the road opposite
the Boat Club and struck a big
tree head on.
Police Headquarters was noti-
fied and Officers William Haggerty
and Henry Dempsey went to the
scene followed by Officer John Mc-
Hugh with the Department ambu-
lance and apparatus from the Fire
Department.
Crowther was accompanied by his
wife, Nancy, and both were pinned
in the car, the motor having been
driven hack toward the front seat
of the machine and badly cutting
the legs of Mrs. Crowther.
The police had to pry open the
door to free the occupants, both of
whom were badly injured. Officer
Haggerty applied tourniquets to
Mrs. Crowther’s legs, effectively
staunching the flow of blood and
she and her husband were rushed
to the hospital in the ambulance.
Drs. Alexander P. Aitken, Wil-
liam F. Hickey and Charles E.
Rooney were awaiting the injured
at the hospital and found Mrs.
Crowther, besides her severely cut
legs, had sustained a badly broken
leg, scalp lacerations and head in-
juries and probable fractured ribs.
Her husband sustained had lacer-
ations of the chin and head injuries.
Though both young people, re-
ported to have been returning from
a honeymoon, were seriously in-
jured, the physicians believed they
would recover and also that they
will he able to save Mrs. Crowther’s
legs.

Y. P. F. will he host to all the youth
groups of Winchester at 7:00
p. m. on Sunday, December 13th. A
movie and refreshments are on the
agenda. Everyone is cordially in-
vited.
On Sunday, December 20th, there
will be a carol sing for the mem-
bers of the Y. P. F. at 7:30 p. m.
Everyone will meet at the church
and leave from there.
Bog ore used in producing iron
at the country’s earliest successful

mostly from nearby meadows.

CAR RAMMED FENCE
AT STATION
In nno of those accidents that just
couldn’t happen, but did. Albert S.
Snow of 55 Yale street escaped in-
jury at 4:40 last Thursday after-
noon when his automobile started
up at Winchester Station and went
from the easterly platform to the
westerly platform of the station,
crashing through the steel and iron
fence between the outward and in-
bound tracks of the railroad on the
way.
According to the police, Mrs.
Snow was driving the Snow Olds
sedan just before the accident and
left it parked facing Winchester
Station at the end of Waterficld
road adjacent to the space reserved
for taxicabs. The motor was loft
running when she parked the car
and Mr. Snow was seated on the
passenger’s side of the front sent.
Just what happened next isn’t
clear. The police think Mr. Snow,
in shifting his position, may have
struck the lever controlling the
hydramatic shift of the machine,
knocking it into low speed forward,
while at the same time accidentally
stepping on the throttle.
At all events the car started for-
ward suddenly and crossing the
easterly sidewalk, crashed through
the fence between the tracks and up
onto the broad platform in front of
the station. There the machine
made a U-turn to the right and
broke through the fence again,
hoving a nine foot section of the
five-foot harrier before it as it
drove across the outbound tracks.
Bouncing up onto the easterly
sidewalk, the car finally came to a
stop against the timbers support-
ing the first platform of the over-
head footbridge at the station, the
rear-end (if the machine remaining
on the outbound tracks.
Sgt. Edward F. Bowler of the
police attempted to move the car,
but the hydramatic had become
jammed in low speed, and it was
necessary to free it before the car
could he reversed and driven, partly
on the station sidewalk and partly
on the outbound roadbed of the rail-
road, north to the grade crossing
at the center where it was towed to
Master Motors Garage.
Meanwhile the railroad tower
man was stopping all trains, while
Section Foreman Charles Barnes
stopped an outbound train with a
flare and supervised the removal of
the broken fence from the tracks.
Miraculously, Mr. Snow apparently
was not injured in what was one of
the most unusual accidents to occur
in Winchester for a long time.

LANDS TO SOUTH
NEW MAP SHOWS
Neighbor lands south of the bor-
der — Mexico and the Central
American countries — are covered
in the latest National Geographic
Society map supplement, now being
distributed to 2,150,000 Society
member families in their Nation
Geographic Magazine for March.
Printed in ten colors, the supple-
ment unfolds to 37 by 2714 inches
and is on a scale of 1 :3, 500, 000, or
55.24 miles to the inch.
Ten Years of Air Photos
Ten years of intensive air photo-
graphy, along with a distillation of
all the cartographic knowledge ac-
quired since the days of the Con-
quistadores, lie behind this new
map, richer by nearly 3,000 place
names than any of the same area
previously published by the Na-
tional Geographic Society.
During and since W’orld War II,
all of Central America and almost
half of Mexico were photographed
from the air by United States
agencies in an ambitious mapping
project undertaken in cooperation
with other American republics.
The Society’s map reflects the
results obtained by this project,
carefully checked against a wealth
of sources that included the out-
standing map collection assembled
by the International Geographic
Union for its Seventeenth Congress
in Washington last August.
Technically, it is a product of
sonic of the world’s leading carto-
graphers, aided by unique Society
equipment and the most accurate
of modern lithographic presses.
Drawn on the Albers Conical
Equal-Area Projection, it shows all
areas in their true proportion.
Map In Two Sections
In order to get the entire region
onto the sheet in the scale chosen,
Chief Cartographer James M. Dar-
ley planned the map in two sec-
tions. The main section, showing
Mexico, ends to the south and east
midway across Honduras. An in-
sert on the same scale carries the
reader on down to Panama’s border
with Colombia. The chart extends
far enough north into the United
States to give proper perspective.
Much of interest and importance
has transpired in Mexico and the
wasp waist of the Western Hemi-
sphere since war days. The Inter-
American Highway, part of the
projected great Pan American
Highway the length of the Amer-
icas, has been almost completed.
It shows on the new map.
In the desolate Revilla Gigedo
Islands about 250 miles south of
the tip of Lower California, vol-
canoes have built new mountains,
and Mexico has awarded exploita-
tion rights for what may he one
of the world’s largest sulphur de-
posits.
The Panama Canal, shown in an
inset on a scale of 11:84 miles to
the inch, has set all-time high
records for carrying shipping.
Mexico has created a new twenty-
ninth state in Lower California,
and started developing in the Papa r
loapan River Valley its own par-
allel to the American Tennessee
Valley project.
In Sigsbce Deep, far out in the
Gulf of Mexico, has been found a
depression 14,358 feet deep, a new
record for the area. Chihuahua’s
Canyon of Copper — Barraneo de
Cobre — has been described by ex-
plorers as deeper than the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado.
GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES
AND BRIEFS
Common belief that snakes travel
by moving their ribs has been ex-
ploded by X-ray moving pictures
showing the ribs to be stationary
in the body under all methods of
snake locomotion.
Volcanic steam harnessed in
plants at Larderello, Italy, furnish-
es almost one-tenth of the nation’s
total electric power, says the Na-
tional Geographic Society.

A GOOSE SILLY! NOT SO,
THE FARMER SAYS
How silly is a goose? Not silly
at all, say farmers and sportsmen,
who should know.
At least two farmers, living at
widely separated places in the
United States, have ganders they
claim tend sheep, says the National
Geographic Society. In each case,
the big bird leads the flock to water,
then returns it to pasture.
The talents of geese as sentries
are well known. Excited gabbling
of Rome’s sacred geese from their
home in the Temple of Juno atop
Capitoline Hill roused the Eternal
City’s defenders in time to rout the
barbarian Gauls who invaded Italy
in 390 B. C.
Used In Kenya
“Watchdog” geese were sent last
summer from Suffolk, England, to
Nairobi, capital of British Kenya
in East Africa. They were bought
by a settler to give the alarm in
case of Mau Man attack.
Across the world in Malaya, the
British high command early in 1953
announced that goose sentries were
being stationed in pens around vil-
lages threatened by Communist
guerrilla raiders.
Like their domesticated brothers,
the free, high-flying wild geese
that go honking down the sky at
season’s turn rate high in intelli-
gence. Canada geese, snow geese,
blue geese, brants all carefully in-
spect the ground for possible
danger before landing, and while
feeding, post sentinels.
Most American barnyard geese
are descendants of the European
and Asiatic graylag. The best for
watchdog duty is the big and power-
ful Chinese goose, suspicious of
strangers and possessed of a voice
rivaling a Parisian taxicab horn in
penetrating resonance.
Weed Crops
Because they arc finicky and se-
lective about their food, geese are
excellent at weeding crops. Hun-
dreds of thousands of them tend
cotton fields, nurseries and blue-
berry and strawberry patches from
Texas to New Jersey.
Their employers claim they eat j
crab grass, Bermuda grass and
even saw-edged Johnson grass I
j without ever touching the cotton j
plants, berries or young trees. For
lawns, however, they are not recom- !
mended.
LARGE AUTHENTIC CAPE.
Conveniently located on versatile double lot, within walking
distance of Center. Comfortable 13x18 living room, master bed-
room plus 2 other bedrooms, kitchen. Exemplifies beautiful main-
tenance. Fine basement contains hobby shop and laundry.

Season’s Greetings
Long time residents of Winches-
ter remember Thurston Hall as a
hoy ami young man here, and as
often as his busy theatrical life
permits Mr. Hall visits the town
and his old friends here. Only re-
cently he was delighted to see Mrs.
Alice Eberle and Mrs. Ruth Hilton
when these two well known resi-
dents of Winchester visited him
during a trip to California at the
Telopix Studios in Hollywood where
he was on TV location.
Horn in Jamaica Plain. Mr. Hall
has spent more than 50 years in
show business ami has a list of
stage and screen successes number-
ing more than 1,000. He is now
busy compiling a second list of
credits in the newer field of TV.
Mr. Hall, whose acting exper-
ience started with school plays in
Winchester, added a solid TV credit
to his new found love on a recent
Wednesday evening, when he made
the first of a series of appearances
as the blustering manufacturer op-
posite Gale Storm and Charles Far-
rell in NBC-TV’s popular “My Lit-
tle Margie" series on Channels 4
and 10.
The youngest of three children,
Mr. Ha'll studied law before going
to New York in the early 1900’s to
play a juvenile role in “Mrs. Wigg*
Of The Cabbage Patch”. As a
leading man. he starred opposite
the most glamorous beauties on the
American stage, including Lillian
Russell and Irene Rordoni.
In the last 17 years, Mr. Hall
has made 500 movies. In 1922 he
I began a four-year tour of the
British Isles with his own company
of players.
In joining the cast of “My Lit*
! tie Margie”, Mr. Hall joined a well-
known Hub City booster in Far-
rell, the Boston University grad-
uate who became a silent movie
matinee idol, and who started a
' new theatrical career when he
agreed to co-star in “My Little
Margie”.
UNDERGRADUATE BRUNCH

the doll that cries real tears
Your youngster will have hours of fun ploying with Tiny Teort #
like Miss Frances does at Ding Dong School. Tiny Tears is the
noarost thing to a live baby. Big wet tears roll dewn her fat#
chubby cheeks as she cries lustly to be changed, fed, bathed and
pampered. She also sleeps, drinks her bottle, wets her diapers#
takes a bath; so many of the things real live babies do. Tiny
Tears will give your little girl the thrill of being “make believe"
grown-up mother. YOUR youngster will love Miss Frances*
television favorite Tiny Tears.

New Haven (Yale) founded origin-
ally in Saybrook, Conn., in 1701,
whose 252 years of high teaching
standards, deserve a better stand-
ing in the howling tournament.
The team consists of the follow- 1
ing men. Richie Riga. Jr., whose
remarkable record speaks for it-
self. Henry Sibrizio who could use
a lot of practice to equal last year’s
record. Al Tibnudo who carries
his share of the burdens.
“St. Bernard Eyes** George Voci,
if he could get the pig out of his I
mind he could do much better. D. I
Puntalea, a new bowler who needs!
seasoning. Ben Gilotti, if he could
miss the rubber enough times he
could he a darn good bowler. Whis-
pers and comments heard mound
the alley.
“Wedding Bolls Boh” to limit
himself to ten appointments and
twenty-five hand shakes on Wed-
nesday nights. Make your appoint-
ments early. Have you seen any
improvements in M. D. Sarnrco who
has been exercising most diligent-
ly ? Heard Cost! is going to exhale.
Pom Provinsano to lift his nose up
four inches. Is there a prouder
father than “Creeper” Gene? Does
“Winchester Star” Larry know who j
writes this column? Ollio Sibrizio
set up pins like a professional in an j
emergency which arose this week. |
Heard he kept a running conversa-
tion with the pins to keep himself i
in trim. The best dressed man j
Nick Molea is the proud father of
a baby girl. Congratulations and i
good luck.
The “G. L.” Randy’s Raffle was j
won by the proud father of Joe and ]
Richie Riga, Mr. Richard Riga,

As I informed you last week a
new contest was to he announced. |
It is being sponsored by our good j
and honorable president of the I
A. C. A. Sir M. Frongillo, well I
known philanthropist for personal I
financial gain only. Because of his j
inability to partiepate in the waist I
reducing exercises and loss of rev-
enue induced by his incapacitation ;
lie has ventured into a new field !
which calls upon his mental in- j
geniousnesses he so possesses. He '
has associated himself with one of
the foremost established makers of ;
loupes here in the East. He has 1
been given the entire town of Win-
chester as an open field in his new j
endeavor. His first thought was to'
hold a contest among the howlers. !
Tension will he at a high pitch i
during this contest. Contestant j
rules are as follows:
1. Must he a member of good
standing in the S. O. I.
2. Must he a howler of the S. O. I.
3. Hair count must not exceed
7335.
4. To protect the six contestants
in the semi-finals, a microscopic
tost will he made to determine if j
any shaving was done to the cran- j
ium.
5. In case of tie duplicate awards
will he given.
(3. The decision of his honor
Mingy will he final.
Prize: “A blond curly toupe.”
Next week will he posted the
semi-finalists.

The Winchester National Bank
sent out this week its new Rngagc-
ment Calendar for 1954.
Similar in design to its predeces-
sor it is again beautifully illus-
trated with pencil sketches by the
well known Winchester artist and
designer, Finest Dudley Chase. In
addition to sketches of private
homes about town there is included
one of Mr. Chase’s illustrated maps
of Winchester and a charming stu-
dv of what the artist calls “Middle
Mystic Lake,” that portion of “big
Mystic” north of the causeway and
dam at the Medford Boat Club.
These National Bank calendars
form a valuable pictorial record of
the town as it is today and are
carefully preserved by many who
look forward to them each year.
The new subtracting lightning
adding machine with one stroke
clearance, with direct subtraction
— see it at Wilson the Stationer.

GARDNER CHAMP!
Herbert "Garrulous” Gnrdner,
the Dix .Street Magnate, won the
ram last week end as the Palmer
Bench Horseshoe Association held
one of its more and more infrequent
matches at the bench courts on
Wedge Pond.
Only a quartet of devotees
answered the rallying cry of Pres-
ident Royal P. Tede, those present
being "Wild Willie” McLaughlin,
the Pride of Stow and Chnmpion of
all Nahnasset, the Secretary, and
of course, Mr. Teele and Mr. Gard-
ner. Arthur E. Butters, sometimes
called the State of Maine Champ in
the old days when "Willoughby
Mobbs was king at Palmer street,
was not among the gladiators, nor
has he been for lo, these many days.
Mr. McLaughlin arrived late at
the beach, and in extenuation of his
dilatory appearance was very crit-
ical of the manner in which his
notification of impending play
reached him. Had it not been for
the fact that Mi. Luke P. Glendon,
the well known Gaelic authority,
was at homo when Mr. Teele trans-
mitted his message by phone, Mr.
McLaughlin would have known

nothing of the gathering of the
« Ians and so would have absented
himself from play, thereby pre-
cluding the matches from rcguln
tion stature because of the lack of
i» quorum.
All this came out a< "Willie”
. was divesting himself of his outer
hiyer of clothing and lighting his
1'ipc. Mr. Teele listened without
( "mmont. Mr. Gardner's sole con-
tribution was, "Comp on! Let’s get
going!”, and the Secretary, who
•vas busy hunting a rent for the
matching, had nothing to say.
1 The fates were unkind to Mr.
McLaughlin, for he drew the Sec-
retary as a partner and went down
m the first match, two straight,
though it must he said that the
Pride of Stow offered little him-
self in support of his team’s at-
tempt to win.
With a change of partners "Wil-
lie" came to life, and announcing
that he had now "got the feel of
the shoes” he and Mr. Gardner pro-
ceeded to “take” the Association’s
| officers, hut not without the dickens
| of a struggle.
As a matter of strict record, the
President and Secretary actually
won the first game, 25-21, Mr.
Teele’s whoops of triumph causing
many as far away as Main street
I to pause and wonder.
The Secretary during this game
had one of his rare flurries of ade-
quate pitching, while Mr. Teele
was ringing the stake with such
regularity that Mr. McLaughlin
! finally had to forego his references
to 'Tcclc's luck!”
Came the second game, and the
President and the Scribe continued
to dazzle each other and opposition
until they had posted a score of 21
as against 12 for Mr. Gardner and
Mr. McLaughlin.
At this point Mr. Teele flung a
ringer and a toucher, and both he
and the Secretary figured to "rot
out”, only to have Mr. McLaughlin
hang one on the pin and knock Mr.
Tecio’s other shoe gaily west with
his second offering.
This so cm aged Mr. Teele and
untie i - ed the Secretary that they
busted wide open, Mr. Gardner and
Mr. Teele throwing alternate ring
ers ' h monotonous regularity un-
til the score was tied at 24 all.
Mr. McLaughlin shot first and
:*ot a counter, hut only a fair shoe,
Mr. Teele voicing his contempt for
the offering. “Willie’s” second
shoe landed at least two feet from
the pin hut bounced directly on,
and stayed! That was it! Mr.
Teelo’s shoes went fluking by the
stake and the match was tied.
The rubber game was a battle,
with the President and Secretary
again pushing to the fore, only to
have the deadly accuracy of Mr.
Gardner and the upsetting clutch
pitching of Mr. McLaughlin turn
the tide once more.
The final score was 25-22, and
the officers, gluttons for punish-
ment, decided to try the winners
again. They did so and looked
good to win with an 11-4 lend, but
at this point the Secretary blew
completely, and Mr. Teele, unable
to carry the load alone, went down
fighting, 25-17.
Mr. Gardner accepted his cham-
pionship honors with becoming
modesty, and denied any secret
practice at Hancock, N. 11., during
the summer. Doubts, however,
were freely expressed by Mr. Teele
who plans to check with “Butch”,
the Gardner son and heir, at the
earliest possible moment.

Service project. These gifts will

ly the girls themselves.
Troop 1 Chatter
Troop 1 had its first trip of the
Scout year, when seven girls went
to New Boston, N. IF, and spent the
week-end camping out of-doors.
Leaving Winchester at 9:00 a. m.
on Saturday, the girls arrived in
New Boston about 11, and began
to set up their camp. Tents were
set up and preparations made for
cooking supper at the campfire.
After supper various games were
played and then everyone retired to
their respective tents. Sunday,
after a hearty breakfast, also cook-
ed out doors, the girls went horse-
back riding and afterwards broke
camp. Everyone returned home
early Sunday evening. This troop
had as its leaders, Mr. and Mrs. W.
B. Mersey, and the girls who went
on the trip were: Alison Mersey,
Sue Donnell, Peg McNally, Betty
Fou Martcnsen, Vivian Bullard,
Judie Higgins and Sheila Scanlon.
Troop No. 1 enjoyed an educa-
tional and very colorful evening
last week when they went to Cam-
bridge High and Fatin School to
see the famed Tyrol ians.
This is a group of Austrians who
yodel, dance and sing to their old
folk music. The 11 players were
dressed in Alpine dirndl skirts and
“leder boson.” The performance
was gay and festive, with many
fast-moving, highly colorful dances
being done by the men and women
of tlic group.
Our Troop was extremely im-
pressed with the performance,
which added very considerably to
our knowledge of our European
neighbors.

The group of about forty men
sang with genuine enthusiasm and
understanding. The program was
well varied to include both light and
serious numbers. It opened with
the impressive W. B. Olds arrange-
ment of “A Mighty Fortress Is Our

The Saturday concert, done en-

of serious intent as well as music

pleasant freshness of approach and
did not become banal.
Miss Moreland, the attractive
and exquisitely gowned young
pianist, charming in manner and

virtuosity with compositions of

octet from the Glee Club itself.
Singing with fine balance and fin-
esse, the eight men brought both
popular ballads and “old timers” to | both,
life. They are exciting to hear and
flin to watch. Their* variations
range from “Blue Indigo”, “In The
Evening By The Moonlight”, to
“The Passport Photographer”. Here
again, enunciation was above the
usual.
On the fun Hide of listening were
“Cindy”, the Arthur Hall arrange-
ment of the “Old Kentucky Moun-
tain” song; “Shadrack”, composed
by Robert MacGimsey and arranged
by Orrie Lee; and the Clokey
conglomeration of familiar tunes,
‘The Musical Trust”. In these the
•ontagious enthusiasm of director
Allen C. Lannom spread to singers
ind audience afike.
Although it is always good to
hear old and favorite compositions
well done, real appreciation must
be expressed to the Glee Club for
their fine rendition of the things
with more musical import. The
enchanting beauty of the simple
Appalachian Folk Song, “Black Is
The Color Of My True Love’s Hair”,
arranged by Stuart Churchill, and
the loveliness of the several Christ-
mas songs in the last group were
particularly noticeable. Especially
fine was the Richard Kountz “Rise
Up Early”. With this were sung
Lo, How A Rose E’er Blooming”
f Praetorious, “’Twas In The Moon
Of Winter Time”, arranged by
Daltry, and the unusual Clarence
Dickenson arrangement of “Angels
O’er The Fields”.
The good work of accompanist
Frederic Davis was outstanding in
the interesting composition of
Frederick Loewe, “They Call The
Wind Maria”. Here also was ap-
parent the imaginative ingenuity
and powerful control of dynamics
of director Lannom, under whose
conducting the Glee Club has be-
come an exceptionally fine singing
ished by a fine of not more than five
hundred dollars or by imprisonment
for not more than two years, o.*

Basketball fans at the high
school gym last Friday night may
see better games this season but
none more exciting than the uphill
43-41 thriller that Winchester High
scored over Arlington High. The
Indians overcame a 5-point deficit
in the last two minutes of play to
win on a basket by co-captain Joe
Dilorio just three seconds before
the final gun to climax a spirited
surge by a fighting band of Indians.
Arlington put a big team on the
court and the visitors used their
height to good advantage to take a
14-9 lead at the end of the first
quarter. The Red and Black fought
back in the second quarter to out-
score Arlington 13-7 and take a
slim 22-21 lead at thc intermission.
Arlington looked good again in the
third quarter as they gained five
points to take a 32-28 lead enter-
ing the final period. With two
minutes to play Arlington held a
41-3G margin when the locals start-
ed their winning rally.
Joe Bellino cut the lead to three
points as he scored on a pretty
driving-in layup. With 50 seconds
to play Joe Dilorio came up with
a vital 3-point play as he made good
on a basket and the ensuing foul
called on the play which tied the
score at 41-41. With 22 seconds to
play Winchester regained posses-
sion of the ball and the alert Bart
lett called a time out to set up the
winning play. On the play that
followed, the basket was missed but j

HOUSE MOVED THROUGH TOWN
The bouse formerly occupied by
Retired Fire Chief and Mrs. John
(human, win- moved early \Yod-
nt -day morning from 4U4 Main
street, to a spot substantially in the
location of tlm old dog pound be-
hind the Foley home on upper Main
street. It will he re-located at 159
Horn Pond Hrook road, ffoing there
by way of Sylvester avenue.
The house, one of three taken by
the town to make room for the addi-
tions at the Junior lliirh School,
was moved by R. K. Goodwin A- Son,
Inc., Building Movers, of 10 Qrne
street, Marblehead. The firm has
moved more than forty houses,
larRc and small, and so expert have
they become that it is reported that
no ceiling in any of the buildings
had been cracked.
The Gorman house was moved
through town on what is known as
a “dolly”, a flat low drag, hauled
by a huge diesel-powered Mack
truck. It was first moved from its
original location at 1 Warwick ter-
race to b‘U Main street, siti* of the
former Marchant house which had
been torn down.
It was loaded ready to go some
time before zero hour, which was
midnight, to avoid undue interfer-
ence with traffic. A light had to be
taken down and the supporting
bracket bent to get the house out
onto the street, and some tree
limbs had to be cut on a large tree
near the Dennett home to get the
building past that point.
From then it was clear sailing
un\il the truck reached Lake street,
led by Engine II of the Fire De-
partment, alerted by Chief Calla-
han for any fire emergency that
might occur in the north end while
the moving was going on.
At Lake street service wires a-
cross the street couldn’t be cleared
and had to he cut, there being a
long delay while service crews cut
the wires and rerouted the power.
The house left the street at the
Browning Laboratories and was
trucked down the drive between the
Lab and the Lane Funeral Home.
Many expected the house to topple
from the truck as it went down
the grade, but their fears were
groundless.
It was a very narrow squeak, get-
ting the building by the corner of
the Browning building, but the men
made it, and the house finally came
to rest in the open space at the
river about 5 o’clock in the morning.
Special police details and the
Superintendent of Streets assisted
in the “operation moving” and sev-
eral town officials watched the un-
usual spectacle with quite a num-
ber of curious spectators, consider-
ing the time.
Wednesday forenoon the movers
constructed a temporary bridge a-
cross the river and by mid after-
noon the house was across the
stream and well on its way to its
final destination.
WYMAN SCHOOL

NEWSY PARAGRAPHS
Richard Farrell, son of Patrol-
man James K. Farrell of the police
department, underwent an oper-
ation for appendicitis Monday ('ve-
iling at the Winchester Hospital.
Dt Ynomi (I. Kkdahl of -*i4 Main
street has been attending the an-
nual assembly of the National
Council of Churches Home Mission
Division which opened Sunday
night, December 13, at Buck Hill
Falls, Pa. Dr. Kkdahl is director
i*f women’s work for the Mass-
achusetts Congregational Christian
Conference in Boston.
Mrs. Penelope Sessions of Rangc-
1 ly entertained a group of friends
with a pre-Christmas party at her
home last night.
Many of the younger listeners nt
last week's De Paur Infantry
Chorus Concert, and there were
quite a number of them at the Com-
munity Concerts feature in the high
school auditorium, went hack stage
after the program for autographs
of the conductor, Leonard De Paur.
Mr. De Paur was very gracious and
signed programs for some time, or
until all his young admirers were
satisfied.
Officers William Callahan and
Mario Buzzotta had to go to
Church street near Bacon street
Monday forenoon and remove a
drunken man from a truck after
he had refused to get off for the
driver. The driver claimed the
man got on in Woburn and was too
big for him to put off. He evident-
ly wasn’t fooling, for the man,
when booked at headquarters, tow-
ered above both Officer Callahan
and Officer Buzzotta, the latter by
no means small.
Mrs. Curtis W. Nash of Lawson
road, wife of Associate Justice
Nash of the Woburn District Court,
returned home last week from the
Winchester Hospital.

MILK CHART FOR OCTOBER - NOVEMBER - DECEMBER

Published by the Winchester Board of Health
The bacteria count of this chart gives the number of bacteria found
in one C. C. taken from the center of the sample after it had been well
shaken. It should be remembered that another c. c. taken from the
same sample might give a somewhat different count, but the difference
would rarely, if ever, exceed 10 per cent.

On Thursday evening, December
10, at the Winchester High School
Auditorium, the Community Con-
cert Association opened its season
with the return engagement of the
famous De Paur Infantry Chorus
which has been enthusiastically ac-
claimed by previous Winchester au-
diences. Anyone who has heard
this excellent group of thirty-five
voices under the superb leadership
of their conductor, Mr. Leonard De-
Paur, will no doubt agree that it is
one of the finest choruses ever to
appear on this continent.
The program was divided into
five parts:
t
Sonpn by Contemporary Composer*
Them* nre the Time* Herbert Haufrecht
Niirhtimrith * Howard Rwnnnon
The Tljtcr’n C.hoat Otto LuenlnR
Dir*e for Two Veteran*
Norman Dock wood
Although there may he those
who are not yet acclimated to all
contemporary m u s i c, everyone
would agree that this chorus show-
ed how difficult harmonies can he
beautifully executed.

ground the excellent soloists showed
up to even better advantage.

songs are familiar but they were !
given new meaning by the effective j
interpretation of the chorus. The i
spirited, marching rhythms and I
delicate shadings made these songs j
a new experience. In contrast to
the martial quality of the other
three, the Chinese Soldier’s Elegy
was done in unison with simple
poignancy and perfect synchroniz-
ation.

In the opinion of some this and
the Spanish group seemed to he the
most popular. Here the chorus
sang with unique abandon, sincerity 1
and deep feeling. Much credit is
due to the tenor soloist for his beau-
tiful interpretation of "Nobody
Knows The Trouble I See" from s
simple melody to n deeply moving
musical experience.

Good taste war shown in the ar-
rangement of the program because
after the opening reminder of our
troubled times, the program ends
with an affirmation of faith. Four
religious denominations are repre-
sented. Each selection was render-
ed in a manner appropriate to its
respective faith.
Enthusiastic applause brought
forth two encores:
Ave Verum by Mozart and a
calypso, The Ugly Woman.
This program revealed the broad
scope of the chorus’ ability and
their most unbelievable technical
excellence. Their many soloists
have unusually fine diction and in-
terpretation. At all times the con-
trol of the conductor was evident
and his skill as an arranger is one
of the greatest assets the group
could have.
Few groups can equal them in
tone blending and shading; few
groups have their rare combination
of technical skill and anesthetic
feeling. This concert was a most
stimulating beginning of this
y c a r’s Winchester Community
Concert Series.

In Boston Thursday afternoon,
December 10, the Mary Witham
Singers entertained for the Wo-
men’s Republican Club with a
Christmas program 6f carols and
readings, presenting artistically
the inspiration of the season. The
carols, both familiar and unusual
ones, were delightful, the Singers
being notable for their sympathetic
response to Mrs. Witham’s effective
directing, supported by Miss Grace
Norian at the piano. Mrs. Robert
P. Blake’s readings were impres-
sive, as always, and added greatly
to the interest of the afternoon.
For their spring programs the
Singers do not begin rehearsals un-
til February.

Every efTort is being made by the
railroad to keep an even flow of
mail on all outbound and inbound
trains and avoid any pile-ups or

The Boston and Maine officials
estimate the road’s part in the mail
delivery this year as well over
1,000 mail cars loaded with letters

cars were put in one single train
it would make a mail train over

The Post Office Department at

that approximately six billion let-
ters ami packages will be moved by
the nation’s railroads during the
pre-Christmas rush.
Extra mail trains now scheduled

Boston and Haverhill, and Spring-

SUPT. GILSON ADDRESSED
HIGH SCHOOL ASSEMBLY
Superintendent of Schools Harry
V. Gilson was the principal speaker
at the high school assembly last
Friday morning. In his introduc-
tory remarks, Principal Wade L.
Grindlc reviewed Dr. Gilson’s dis-
tinguished educational career, as
Commissioner of Education for
Maine, deputy commissioner in New
York, and regional director for the
Federal Office of Education.
Responding to Mr. Grindle, Dr.
Gilson expressed his pleasure at
being able to meet with the students
of the high school for the first time,
and he said that before too long he
hoped to become better acquainted
with individual pupils. The Super-
intendent noted that as a native of
New England he was glad to be
back in home territory after several
years spent in the Midwest. Re-
gardless of the attractions of other
sections of the country,” he said,
"no real New Englander is ever
quite at home anywhere else.”
In a more serious vein, Dr. Gil-
son recalled some of his experiences
as an educator concerned with the
training of youth during the de-
pression. These young people, all
of them unemployed and most of
them from homes suffering great
deprivation, were called “the lost
generation” by some observers.
The “calamity howlers” asked what
the country was coming to if it had
to depend upon these aimless, hope-
1 e s s youngsters. Nevertheless,
neither Communism nor any other
foreign ism made a dent on the
majority of these youth. And,
when Pearl Harbor came, these
same young people, more than any
others, gave their all to defend the
American way of life. Their de-
votion and sacrifice, said Dr. Gil-
son, may well be emulated by to-
day’s youth, as it takes up the task
which is every generation’s, that of
preserving and improving demo-
cracy.
Prior to the Superintendent’s
the DOT
We fully reulize the importance of
nutkinit prescribed medicine avail-
able to patients it h quickly iih pos-
sible. Often, speed is vitul to the
preservation of life. Therefore, we
speech, Mr. Grindle announced the
winner of the D. A. R. Good Citizen-
ship Award which this year goes
to Sheila Scanlon. Sheila was call-
ed to the stage to receive congratu-
lations for her well-earned honor.

IV SIM LIVING HERE
Last Sunday's Boston Globe had
a feature story by Edward L. Ja-
mieson on Frank Fontaine, 33-
year-old TV, radio and movie co-
median. The story had especial
interest in Winchester because of
the fact that the Fontaines
recently moved to town and
are living at 4 OH Highland avenue,
across the street from the old Hen-
ry place, later the home of Mr.
Albert K. Fomins.
Mr. and Mrs. Fontaine have nine
children, ranging in ages from
Frank, Jr., 15, down to baby Eu-
gene, only a few weeks old. They
recently came from a seven-room
home in Medford to their present
11-room house on Highland avenue.
Frank, himself, has refused many
an enticing professional offer, en-
tailing long periods away from
home, to be with his family as
much as possible.
Since he got his start on the Ed
Sullivan ShfTw in 1948 Mr. Fon-
taine has twice taken his family to
Hollywood and has returned each
time because his wife missed her
family and friends around Boston.
He will stay in Winchester until
New Years, doing one-night guest
appearances in New York and fly-
ing home. In January he will ap-
pear at the Copa Cabana in Miami
for three weeks, then come home
for three weeks, go to Las Vegas
for a three-weeks appearance and
while there hop to Hollywood for
a week or so to do a quick movie
and a guest spot on the Jack Benny
show!
Some 18 boards were stolen
from a new house under construc-
tion for John Wilson on Hutchin-
son road. The builder, Gordon
Benson, 85 Ferrin street, Charles-
town, notified the police.
METCALF UNION DANCE
SATURDAY
Metcalf Union, the high school
fellowship at the Unitarian Church,
will hold a colorful Christmas
dance Saturday evening, in Met-
calf Hall from 8 to 11:30.
The dance is called llollydnze
Whirl, and a huge committee has
been working to make it a success-
ful and enjoyable affair. Members
of Metcalf Union will meet Satur-
day morning to decorate the hall
in a gay, holly motif.
Ed Strack’s well-known orches-
tra will play for the evening. Many
high school friends of Metcalf Un-
ion members will attend.
The dance committee is:
Darrell Harvey, chairman
Barbara Hottel

tween octopus and human, electric
eels slithering about and man-eat-
ing sharks skulking here and there

The board meeting of the Win-
chester District Nursing Associa-
tion whs held in the town hail l ri-
dny, Decembei 11th. The resigna-
tion of Mrs. Underwood Edgar was
accepted with regiei. Mrs. Edgar
has been a mcmuei of the finance
committee bui has moved from
Winchester to live in Tnnnvorth,
New Hampshire.
The continuing shortage of nurs-
es has concerned Mrs. Balton,
Congresswoman from Ohio. She
has written to Mrs. Browne, pres-
ident of the W. D. N. A. asking for
suggestions on introducing bills in
Congress to cope with this situa-
tion. The Winchester hoard feels
that Federal aid to nurses in train-
ing is not the way to do this but
rather to make available more
scholarships to interested and de-
serving individuals.
The entire nursing staff has com-
pleted a course in home accident
prevention given in Medford by the
Mass. Dept, of Public Health. Miss
Petersen is taking a course at Bos-
ton University on “Recent Advanc-
es in Clinical Nursing.” The class
is held two hours weekly and vari-
ous nursing problems relating to
geriatric, cardiac, cancer and dia-
betic patients have been discussed.
In all these diseases the emphasis
is on early return to activity and re-
habilitation of the individual. Faci-
lities have been organized by the
state, so that the patient unable to
continue active physical labor may
have his case assessed and jobs
suggested that he is capable of
handling.
Miss Tucker attended the Dia
betes Fair held in Horticultural
Hall November lGth and 17th. Doc-
tors, nurses and dieticians co-ope-
rated to give a clear picture of how
diabetes may be controlled by indi-
vidually prescribed diet, care, exer-
cise and insulin.
The annual meeting of the
W. D. N. A. will be held on January
22nd at the home of Mrs. Dunbar
Shanklin, 12 Everett avenue. Dr.
Snedeeker, assistant administrator
at the Children’s Medical Center,
will speak on “Safety Begins at

Adv.
The Star received this week a
handsome pictorial calendar from
Alfred D. “Al” Elliott, widely
known building contractor and
member of the Board of Assessors.
“Al” has chosen the Coronet Sea-
scape Calendar” this year and we
predict that all fortunate enough to
get one will like the fine ship pic-
tures and views along shore. ‘
Last Sunday afternoon’s presen-
tation of “The Messiah" and “Za-
dok the Prirst” by the augmented
Winchester Unitarian Choir was n
beautifully disciplined performance
for which all hands deserve n good
measure of ere lit. As originally
written, of course, “The Messiah”
was sung by fourteen men nnd six
boys; but nowadays we are used
to hearing it from very large chor-
al groups accompanied by full or-
chestra. As far ns sheer numbers
are concerned, the singers on Sun-
day totaled somewhere between
twenty nnd the current Handel nnd
Haydn Society; but in the setting
of the Winchester Unitarian
Church they sounded fine.
After nn organ prelude, the mem-
bers of the Motion Choir went
through a brief nnd simple, but
effective, rhythmic candle proces-
sional in the darkened church; nnd
then came the impressive Corona-
tion Anthem, “Zndok, the Priest.”
This is a moderately complex piece
to sing, balancing, as it does, re-
sounding choral climaxes against
passages of contrapuntal roulades,
and the group handled it well.
“The Messiah,” to be precise,
Part I (the Christmas section) and
the Hallelujah Chorus, was sung
with an eloquence and assurance
by chorus and soloists alike, and
given a flawless organ accompani-
ment by Weston L. Brannen, that
brought many comments of more
than routine approval from among
the near-capacity gathering at the
conclusion of the performance.
Whether by acoustical chance or
acute staging on the part of Direc-
tor Mary Ranton Witham, the vari-
ous sections seemed to balance one
.•mother perfectly: the firm, reso-
nant basses, the soaring sopranos,
and the poised and melodic tenors
and altos. It was this balance that
produced a textural richness which
never faltered from beginning to
end.
The attacks and releases were
excellent, and the climaxes were
produced at the top of gathering
ground-swell effects. Particularly
artistic was the handling of the
chorus “His Yoke is Easy and His
Burthen is Light,” with many shad-
ings of section behind section.
As regards the soloists, we lack
the technical background to evalu-
ate their performance in any detail,
beyond generalizing that they all
seemed very good indeed. Dolores
Baldyga, soprano, Muriel Thorley,
contralto, and John Morabito, ten-
or, all sang with authority and
feeling. We were especially im-
pressed with George Fortune, bass,
who sings with an offhand manner
nnd facial expression splendidly be-
lied by the control and power of a
really fine voice.
We have heard comments from
several of those who attended last
Sunday, nnd everyone seems to
think that this was one of the out-
standing performances this talent-
ed group has ever given.

Winchester High School’s hockey
team looked impressive in beating
Beverly High, 3-1, in its season’s
opener Tuesday afternoon at the
North Shore Sports Center in Lynn.
Winchester opened the scoring at
4:28 of the first quarter when
freshman Leo Callahan tallied on a
pass from Richie Johnson. Beverly
tied it at 8:49 of the second period
when Pete Pinciaro slapped in a
rebound.
Winchester went ahead at 4:02
of the third period when Richie
Johnson sank one after taking a
pretty pass from Ralph Kerrigan.
Bobby Paine added an insurance
goal on passes from Captain Bobby
McLaughlin and Wayne Cowles at
6:24.
John Page and Bill Jesdalc look-
ed good in the Winchester nets, and
the whole team played a good de-
fensive game, holding Beverly to
10 shots while the Indians took 23.

ANTONIO TOFURI
Antonio Tofuri of 44 Holland
street, a well known resident of
Winchester for nearly 60 years,
died Friday morning, December 18,
at the Winchester Hospital after a j
brief illness with heart disease. He
had been in his usual health until !
last Thursday when he was first i
stricken, entering the hospital at
that time and dying the following
morning.
Mr. Tofuri was the son of An- ;
gelo, and Pasqualina (Iacobcllis)
Tofuri. He was horn December 5,
188(5, in Piertodifuso, Province of j
Avellino, Italy, coming to this
country in 1005. After a few
months residence in Swampscott
he came to Winchester and had
since made his home here, enjoying
a wide circle of friends and being'
particularly well known in the
Italian section of the town.
Mr. Tofuri, like so many of his
countrymen at that time, first
worked in Winchester on Symmes*
Farm. Later he was employed at
the J. O. Whitten Co., gelatine fac-
tory on Cross street, and then for
some years at Beggs & Cobb tan-
nery. He last worked for the At-
lantic Gelatine Division of General
Foods Corporation in Woburn, re- !
tiring two years ago. He was a j
member of the Christopher Colum-
bus Society and the St. Anthony
Club of North Woburn.
Mr. Tofuri was twice married.
His first wife, the former Josephine
Rappa, died in 1939, and the fol-
lowing year he married Mary M.
Marrone, who survives, with three
sons, Angelo P. R., Emilio J., and
Pasquale A. Tofuri, all of Winches-
ter. Also surviving are six grand-
children, a sister, Mrs. Marianna
Marrone of Woburn, and three
brothers, Gennaro Tofuri of Win-
chester and Joseph and Pasquale
Tofuri of Taurr.si, Italy.
The funeral was held Monday
morning from the Lane Funeral
Home with solemn requiem high
mass at St. Mary’s Church. Rev.
Fr. Charles A. Anadore was cele-
brant, Rev. Fr. Joseph McCall, dea-
con, and Rev. Fr. Martin Dolphin,
subdeacon.
Bearers were six nephews of the
deceased, Carmine Tofuri, Joseph
Tofuri, Ralph Fiore, Mario Mar-
rone, all of Winchester; Anthony
Tuzzilo of Woburn and Joseph
Marrone of Medford. Burial was in
Calvary Cemetery.
MORSE PROMOTED
TO SUPERVISE CARRIERS
AT WINCHESTER I'OSTOFFICE
REV. JOHN SNOOK, JR.
AWARD TO
METHODIST MINISTER
Carl E. Morse, a carrier at the
Winchester postoflice for nearly
30 years, has been promoted to su-
pervisor of carriers at the local
office. As such his work will be in-
side and of a supervisory nature,
having to do with the routes and
schedules of the carriers and the
working of substitutes.
Mr. Morse was appointed a car-
rier June 23, 1924, and with the ex-
ception of his first three years,
when he was assigned to the West
Side, he has carried the East Side
Hill route, extending from Win-
throp street to the Medford line.
Mr. M orse makes his home at
| 17 Lloyd street, and is married to
the former Priscilla Laraway of
i Winchester. They have three
daughters, Mrs. Charles Phippen,
a senior at University of Massa-
chusetts; Marjorie, an employee of
the Second National Bank of Bos-
ton; and Nancy, a senior at Win-
chester High School.
Mr. Morse is actively identified
t , _ with Waterfield Lodge, I.O.O.F., of
This past Sunday at the Craw- Winchester, of which he is a past
ford Memorial Methodist Church, ] gnind; is a member of Wil-
an announcement was made by jj am parkman Lodge of Masons;
Vincent P. Clarke that Rev. John un( j f or past 12 years has been
Snook, Jr., pastor, is one ^of two secretary- treasurer of Branch 243,
ministers of the New England National Association of Letter
Conference of the Methodist Church 1 Carriers,
to receive the Stowell Palestine
Fund Travel Scholarship in the
amount of one thousand dollars.
This fund assists to make it pos-
sible for a minister to go to Pales-
tine and visit some of the scenes 1
where Christ lived and labored.
Through the efforts of Colonel
Lester Godwin of Winchester and
Chaplain Charles Carpenter, head
of the U. S. Air Force Chaplains,
Rev. Snook was privileged to con-
duct a preaching mission last
Spring, in Lybia and French Moroc-
co, North Africa. He will plan,
with the permission of the local
church, to spend time in research,
regarding some of the places which
highlighted the ministry of Jesus
and visit these particular scenes,
bringing back a report to his
people.

The junior high school orchestra,
boys’ and girls’ glee clubs, and
members of a dramatic group com-
bined their talents to present a
gay Christmas assembly last Fri-
day morning at the high school
auditorium. Borrowing from the !
world of commercial television, the
youngsters had prepared a make-
believe television program.
The master of ceremonies, Larry
Longworth, handled his role in
good Fd Sullivan style and kept
the long program running smooth-
ly. After his introduction by
Kathleen Doherty, the announcer,
Larry presented the junior high
orchestra under the direction of
Mr. Theodore Janner. This year’s
group is composed of 50 members,
30 of whom are in the string sec-
tion. The several selections, well
played by the orchestra, showed
the results of much practice and
training.
The following pupils performed
in the quartets or trios:
Betsy Burton
Aprille Godwin
Sarah Fish
Richard Niles
Carl Masi
John Bird
David Littleton
Beverly Bonnell
Janet Donovan
Jane Overacker
Ann Neville
Debbie Jope
Judy Murray
Following the orchestral selec-
tions, Stephen Enright, in his role
of president of “Christmas Spirit.
Inc.,” was introduced to say a few
words. Christmas in many lands
was the subject of the next group
of entertainers. Linda Baker sang
a French carol, while Ledger Mitch-
ell described Christmas in Italy.
Other countries represented were
the following:
Sweden, by David Van Ummcr-
sen
Germany, by Paul Sullivan
England, by Mary Welden
Holland, by Brenda Cowles
Spain, by Judy Cussen
Much enjoyed by the audience of
students and parents were the num-
bers sung by boys’ and girls’ glee
clubs under the direction of Miss
Eleanor Anifantis. The program
presented by the boys’ glee club
included:
1. “We Three Kings of Orient
Are” — soloists, Edward Morse,
William Toppi, and Donald Seaver
2. “Silent Night” — soloist, Sam
Orth
3. “God Rest Ye Merry Gentle-
men” — soloists, David Harkins,
Charles O’Connor, Dominic Serra-
tore, Jonathan Handy.
Especially noteworthy was the
solo work of Sam Orth.
Another fine part of the assem-
bly was the reading by Vivian
Loustanau of “The First Christmas
Story.” Vivian also wrote the
script for the entire TV program.
The program ended with the |
singing of three songs by the girls’ i
glee club:
i 1. “Santa Claus is Coming to!
Town”
j 2. “White Christmas” — duet by:
I Barbara and Eleanor Graustuck |
3. “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Rein-
I deer.”
Others taking part in the assem-
bly were Jean Elliott, who assist-
ed the “sponsor”; and the members
of the stage crew, David Purring-
ton, Jack Ghirardini, and Charles
Bond. Miss Charlotte LeClaire, of
the junior high school faculty, was
the program coordinator.

The death rate from polio is
dropping steadily, thanks to prog-
ress made possible by March of
Dimcs-supported research. From
1938 through 1942 eleven out of
every 100 persons who contracted
polio died of the disease. At last re-
port, the death rate was down to
six per ICO.
On Sunday, December 20th, the
7th and 8th grades of the Church
School of the Epiphany put on the
Christmas Worship Service at 9:30

Mine”. The parts of the three]
Kings were sung by Edward Morse.
John Bird and Robert deRivera.
The entire 7th and 8th grades sang
“Gloria in Excelsis”. A special i
Christmas gift offering was made.)
Each hoy and girl brought a Christ-
jmas gift for distribution by Bishop
Herron to the needy children of the
Episcopal Church.
At the 1 1 o’clock Worship Service
on December 20th, the third grade
classes of Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Hauck,
Mrs. Hills and Mrs. Price put on
a Candle Light Christmas program.
Vested in their red and white cot-
tas and cassocks with holly wreaths
for their heads, the children pro-
cessed singing, “It Came Upon the
Midnight Clear”.
Donald McLcllan was the Cru-
cifer, and Elizabeth Folkers car-
ried a Christinas candle. Richard
Hanson recited “Light the Christ-
mas Candles” and Mrs. Hill’s class
recited “The Christmas Symbols”.
Wreath — Robert Wyman
Bells — Richard Geary

An estimated 35,000 persons con-

below the 1952 record of 57,000
cases, but it was still the sixth
straight year of high polio inci-

CHRISTMAS EVERYWHERE”
AT LINCOLN SCHOOL
“Christmas Everywhere” was the
title of the delightful program pre-
sented by the pupils of the Lincoln
School in the school auditorium on
the evening of December 17. Much
study and work had gone into the
preparation of this assembly, and
the results were both entertaining
and educational to the enthusiastic
audience. Even the most erudite of
parents must have learned some-
thing he hadn’t known before about
the celebration of Christmas in
other lands.
All the youngsters in Grades
one through six shared in the fol-
lowing program:
The First Christmas — Grade 3,
Mrs. Janet McGrath.
Christmas in Switzerland —
Grade 1, Mrs. Mary Sullivan.

Grade 2, Miss Margaret Harkins.
Piano accompaniment was played
by Mrs. Lucy Wilcox Cushman.
The generous assistance of the
Lincoln Mothers’ and Dads’ Clubs
was greatly appreciated by the
pupils and their teachers. The
preparation of many of the stage
properties and costumes, the mak-
ing of the wreaths, the wonderful
Christmas tree, and the delicious
refreshments — all were the work
of helpful parents.
Attracting much favorable com-
ment was the “stained-glass win-
dow”, nine feet high, which was
constructed by the children in Mrs.
Walsh’s room. Miss Virginia
French, elementary school super-
visor of art, gave them much valu-
able advice on this difficult project.

CLEANSING
The Winchester High hoopsters
will open their Middlesex League
schedule at home next Wednesday
night, December 30, when they en-
tertain Melrose High. With three
preliminary games providing valu-
able and much- needed experience,
the Indians are confident of suc-
cessfully opening their quest for a
fourth straight league champion-
ship against the Red Raiders.
With a new coach in Joe Austin,
the coach who successfully reju-
venated Melrose High football last
fall, the visitors are expected to be
stronger on the court this winter.
In fact, the entire league seems to
possess the greatest all-around
strength of recent years as indi-
cated by the success of the league
teams in their preliminary games.
Lexington is the pre-season favorite
to cap the title but Reading, Bel-
mont, Stoneham, Wakefield, and
Concord are all playing winning
ball against strong opposition.
Judging from the first three
games Coach Bartlett has decided
upon a seven-man varsity but not
on a starting five as he has used
different combinations in the con-
tests. Co-captains Joe Dilorio and
Dave Pratt, Jim Wright, Buddy
McKinley, Lou Farrell, Joe Bellino,
and John Lynch make up the var
sity team with Charlie Stevens,
Pete Gove, and Bill Ross in reserve.
The team has been making steady
progress and hopes to break out
with an improved scoring punch
against Melrose, Wednesday night.
The preliminary game between the
two second teams will get underway
at 7:30 p. m.
HOME FOR
CHRISTMAS VACATION
A capacity audience attended the
presentation of an all-school Christ-
mas pageant at the George Wash-
ington School on the evening of
December 10. “Christmas In Many
Lands” was the theme selected for
the performance in which all class-
es, with the exception of the kin-
dergarten, participated. In all, 205
children helped to portray Christ-
mas customs in our own land, Eng-
land, Holland, Norway, Italy, and
Germany.
The narrators for the various
episodes included:

field, Parker Gray, Patricia Tofuri,
Janet Cussen, Paul Francis, Ann
Abbott, Nanette Marshall, Andy
Sjoholm, Sherwood Kelley, Gerald
Ducharme, Judith Towle, James
Rravacos, Suzanne Foster, Robert

A vested choir gave a musical
bakground throughout the perfor-
mance. Drama, pantomime, choric
speaking, singing, and creative
dancing were the media used in
portraying the story of Christmas.
All of the scenery was made by
children in Grades 3 through G.

enjoyment of their parents and
friends on the evening of December
17. All the grades participated in
the program which was divided in-
to two parts, the first portraying
the gay and youthful side of Christ-

Approximately 237,000 children
in 21 communities received gamma
globulin inoculations against polio
paralysis in 1953. This year, the
March of Dimes hopes to provide
enough funds to inoculate at least
2,000,000 with GC,.
The children of the Lincoln
School kindergarten enjoyed a spe-
cial Christmas program of their
own on Tuesday morning. Every-
one in the class had a part in
presenting a gay little play entitled,
“Christmas Eve at the North Pole”.
Members of the cast were as fol-
lows:

On Sunday afternoon at 2:00
p. m. at Noonan School, Winchester
Council No. 210 Knights of Colum-
bus held their annual Christmas
Party for children. The party was
exceptionally fine and the kiddies
enjoyed themselves to the hilt. It
was certainly gratifying to the
committee to see the youngsters so
happy, and it can be truthfully said
that the children behaved in a fine
manner.
First on the agenda was movies
with Tom Drapeau in charge of
this function. Shrill cries of de-
light rent the air during the show-
ing of the Punch and Judy film
followed by the cat and mouse car-
toon entitled “South Pole or Bust”,
a Night Before Christmas Santa
film and a hilarious school room
cartoon with Mary’s lamb seeking
admittance despite teacher’s no.
Upon entering the School Hall the
kiddies were presented with Christ-
mas candies to munch on during the
films then Jim Cullen took over for
carol singing and it must be said
that only Jim could be heard in this
department since he has the
“voice”. Every announcement of
Jim’s was beard and the program
went smoothly. We doubt if any-
one else could have been heard
over the merriment of the children.
Norm Harrold accompanied on the
piano and did a fine job. Soloists
from among the kiddies were John
McDonough and a duet by Marion
Nolan and Patsy Abbott. Silent
Night, Rudolph, Jingle Bells and
all the rest were sung by the en-
tire assembly. Even Santa Claus
favored with his rendition of the
“First Noel”. Ed Boucher arrang-
ed for Santa’s coming. The final
number was the appropriate
“America”. Then the children for
tified with ice cream lined up order-
ly to receive a present from Santa
and the party came to a close for
another year. The committee fol

WINCHESTER WINS
The Winchester High basketeers
added their second straight triumph
of the season by defeating Dedham
High at Dedham last Friday night
by a score of 50-27. The final score
was not really indicative of the
game itself as it was a hard fought
contest until the midde of the third
quarter before the Indians pulled
away to a decisive victory. The
Dedham zone defense bothered the
locals as they were not working the
ball well and were not shooting
with their normal degree of accur-
y.
Winchester opened the game as
though they were going to make an
easy contest of it, racing away to
14-7 lead at the end of the first
quarter. Dedham fought back in
the second quarter to play the
locals on even terms so that Win-
chester held the same seven-point
margin, 25-18, at the half. The
first three minutes of the third
period saw Dedham close the gap
to 27-24 but from that point the
Indians took complete charge of the
game as they outscored Dedham
25-3 over the last 13 minutes of
play.
Jim Wright, Dave Pratt, and Joe
Dilorio sparked the Winchester
surge in the last part of the game
to emerge as top scorers for the
Indians. John Lynch and Dave
Pratt led in the vital rebounding
department for Winchester while
Jim Wright played a strong floor
game while pacing the scorers
with 13 points. Coach Bartlett felt
that while their shooting was a bit
off, his charges played smoother
ball and the charts showed that the
Indians made 14 less errors than in
their opener last week.
After a slow start the Winches-
ter Seconds had an easy game in
running up a 41-13 score over the
Dedham Seconds in the preliminary
game. Pete Gove was the only
local to hit for double figures with
14 points while Bob Smith and Bert
Knceland looked good for Win-
chester.
The summary:
Winchester Illirh
This eleventh week of bowling
finds the top team floundering again
and cannot seem to get themselves
o-ordinated.
Polio Prevention is aimed at
stamping out the only epidemic
disease still on the increase in
America.

Christmas dinner last Friday eve-
ning in the Alumni Gymnasium.
He is one of three Winchester

the others being Thomas H. Parker,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry S. Par-
ker of 11 Sheffield road, and Louis
A. Towner of 37 Wildwood street.
Both Parker and Towner won
their letters in pony soccer and the

CHRISTMAS PARTY
The annual Christmas party of
the Winchester Trust Company
employees was held on Wednesday
evening at the Winchester Country
Club with dinner being served in
the grill room.
Miss Helen Hogan, admirably
portraying the difficult role of Santa
Claus, distributed gifts to each one
present. Vocal solos by Miss Ma-
rion Dyson and Robert Adams, with
Miss Lafayette at the piano, wen.
enthusiastically applauded.
Highlighting the evening of en-
joyment was the awarding of
special prizes to Mrs. Helen Chaput,
Miss Celia Lafayette, Miss Cathe-
rine Callahan and Mr. Robert
Adams.
It is wonderful to see that the
enthusiasm and clamor is going
strong among t ho young ns well as
the old. This week 1 would like to
make a few comments about St.
Mary’s team. This team includes
great number of has been top
bowlers whose age has finally
caught up to them. We have Nick
Molea whose latest addition has
taken its toll. The boy of the
team Mr. Youth himself “Curly
Locks” Chick, need I say more. Sir
honorable Mr. Frongillo, lie’s not
the power behind this team. “Fire-
bug” Butsie Mistrctta who always
has hells ringing in his cars. “Gas
pump” Joe Tofuri, needs a little
more weight to hold the ball.
Eddie Figione should have no ex-
cuses at all.
Whispers and comments heard
around the alley: The originator of
the new fashion for men, four inch-
es above the ankle, was set many
years ago by our good friend
Mingy, or hadn’t you noticed how
proud he is of his ankles. It’s a
good thing that “Wedding Bells”
Boh is not loose more than Wed-
nesday nights, he sure runs his bat-
tery down. Does Vocci go to bed
with his brown fedora? Is it true
that the boy bowler “Curly Locks”
Chick is low man on this team this
week, A question that must be
answered for “Snags O’Toole” does
S. O. I. stand for Sons of Italy or
Sons of Ireland.
An urge for poetry:
Chance
In the world came a man
Who in his country’s need
Became a wiry captain
Who was always in the lead
He loved a game of chance
In battle or in poker
And often did he prance
Specially when he won a porker
Vocci will he the Chef
When big and fat he will get
For the little devil is deaf
He’ll never be Vocci’s pet.
What an uproar the toupee con-
test has started. Everyone’s trying
to ge't in on the act. His honor
Mingy has been swamped for en-
try blanks. Believe it or not even
Creeper” Gene wanted a blank.
After hours of eliminations his
honor raised the amount of semi-
finalists to eight instead of six. The
following are the lucky semi-final-
ists: Ben Gilotti, Ralph Tauro, M.
D. Sarraca, John Bertolucci, Dom
Provinzano, “Goldy Locks” Randy,
“Curly Locks” Chick and Peter
Provinzano. May the best man
win.
Our Wednesday night must raffle
was won by Phil Maraca.
May I extend to you at this time
a very Merry Christmas and the
best to you all.

One of the largest turnouts of
candidates for the Freshman bas-
ketball team has been cut down to
a working squad of 13 by coaches
Knowlton und Bartlett. Those sur-
viving the cuts and making up the
first team are Dave Bergquist, Ken
Brown, John Chapin, Ed Fitzgerald,
Jim Fitzgerald, Tom Hooper, Den-
nis Keane, Bill Mason, Bob Pur-
rington, Quentin Roberts, Ronald
Roberts, John Russo, and Roger
Symmes. Selected as manugers
for the team are John Foster, Chris
Michelsen, and Dave Pingree.
Practising daily in preparation
for a rugged 12-game schedule, this
year’s group shows considerable
promise. In addition to displaying
considerable ability, this will be one
of the largest teams to represent
the Freshmen in recent years. They
were undefeated a year ago as a
Junior High team and may very
well post a similar enviable record
this season. Couch Bartlett has
gone on record as saying that there
are more good players in this group
than of any Freshman group in the
past five years.
Although no starting five has
been chosen as yet, the quintet
seen most often working together
consists of Roger Symmes and Dave
Bergquist at forward, John Chapin
at center, und the Roberts’ twins,
Quentin and Ronald, at the guard
berths. This quintet packs good
height and aggressiveness in the
front court with speed and play-
rnaking ability in the hack court.
Big Jim Fitzgerald, Bill Mason, and
“Moe” Russo are others who look
particularly good and may well
earn a starting berth for the open-
ing gume with the Woburn Fresh-
men on Junuury 5. Alreudy Coach
Ted Burtlett has some of these boys
tabbed for future varsity greatness
with only the necessary desire and
hard work on the part of the hoys
needed to develop into another

KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM
NOT ONE
Editor of the Star:
According t - an A. P. dispatch,
dated New York, Decembei in, a
world fa moii' scientist advised “a
former employe of sensitive gov-
ernment installation,” not to say
whether he had been a communist,
and not to coopernte with the in-
vestigating committee, or “any
other committee of a similar
nature, on the basis of the Fifth
Amendment.”
In the* libraries of the brains of
the men who have made this coun-
try great, the volumes on the
shelves of knowledge have been
counterbalanced by those on the
shelves of wisdom, that have result-
ed from an early and life-long con-
tact with a stern and practical !
world. Memory reveals the long- j
forgotten events recorded there,
and thus knowledge, tempered by [
wisdom, makes an individual of
poise.
"Knowledge and wisdom, far
f mm being one, have oftimes no
connection.” Men surfeited with
knowledge may he mentally un-
balanced from lack of wisdom and
are sometimes called odd or pecu-
liar.

alien enemies, seeking to destroy
our government, have easily in-

that it is particularly appropriate
to recognize, among our many
blessings, the* grand work of the
Winchester Star and the impor-
tance of its service to the commu-
nity. Not only have you strength-
ened our community ties by a broad
yet intimate coverage of the news,
hut your timely support has been
the keynote of success for many
worthwhile civic drives and chari-
table ventures.
It is hard to put in words, for
example, the wonderful part you
played in furthering our New Eng-
land Junior Tennis Development
program in 1053. You deserve our
appreciation and thanks, first of
all, for sponsoring a drive for
racquets which were needed to help
worthy youngsters get a real start.
You were directly instrumental in
our collecting over eighty racquets
right here in Winchester!
Through timely reporting, you
heralded the formation of the New 1
England Junior Tennis League, and
vantageous if the lights for skat-
ing were changed from Big, to
Little Winter Pond. At some ex-
pense this change was made.
The weather did not permit
skating until last week-end. It was
perhaps noticed that the lights
were not used, because all the lights
and most of the sockets into which
the bulbs were placed had been
broken by stones thrown by ir-
responsible children.
So far this year the Town has
spent $500 for vandalism. These
lights were installed for the enjoy-
ment of all. We hope those who
| are interested in this sport will co-
operate with us and immediately
1 report to the police any acts of
I vandalism they find.
We shall attempt to notify the
in our opinion, the
skating is safe at Winter Pond by
a notice to that effect placed on the
bulletin hoard in the square. We
wish to take this opportunity to
make it clear, however, that the
final decision as to whether or not
the ice is safe is up to the parents
and not the Park Department.

(■Kit AM) S. SEMINATOKE
Eighteen year old Woburn boy
It is good to see Winchester
maintaining its prominence in ten-!
nis in the ranking of Blair Hawley
No. 1 in New England tennis sin-
gles and doubles. Winchester had
one of the first tennis courts to he
laid out in the last on the old Prince
estate on Wedge Pond years ago
and since that time has contributed
its fair share to the game. Tennis
as we know it now in Winchester
,s the product of Rev. William S.
Packer, whose leva for and devotion
to the game resulted in the rather]
unusual facilities for tennis which
the town enjoys. “Bill" Packer
gave much to Winchester tennis,
particularly to girls tennis here.!
ni* own daughter, Louise, “Susy”
Gutter, “Syr Hatch, Helen Carroll
and Polly Kimball, to name only a
few, were girls who made their
mark in tennis in Massachusetts.
Now Mr. Hawley is turning his at-
tention to interesting the town’s
hoys, among others, in tennis as a
competitive sport, just as Little
League baseball is awakening in-
terest among younger boys in what
has always been considered our na-
tional game. Tennis is not only
a great sport, hut a game capable
4 1 f testing competitors to the limit.
The Bill Packers and Blair Haw-
leys, to say nothing of the Dottie
Hills, deserve the hacking of all
sports lovers in their effort to sell
our young people the game.
This could have been as sad a
Christmas in five Winchester
,omes as it will be in the home of
he Woburn young man who was
tiled Tuesday afternoon when his
axicah collided with a train on
he Hill street crossing in the
Corth End. Some or all of the five
Vinchester boys who weie riding
n the automobile that got out of
ontrol and struck three trees on
lorder road Tuesday night could
a.-ily have shared the taxi driver s
ate. We are all happy that they did
iot and can join in hoping that oth-
r accidents involving our young
icople turn out no worse. The ope-
ation of automobiles, especially at

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO OUR
MEN IN THE ARMED FORCES
Members of the Mystic Glee
Club made their annual Christmas-
time visit to the family at the
Home for the Aged Wednesday
evening, singing for the family and
staff of the home. Refreshments
were served by t lie staff and mem-
bers of the Board and a social hour
was enjoyed.
Editor of tlu* Star:
The Military Manpower Commit-
tee wishes to extend a safe and
happy New Year to all our local
young men in uniform. The writer
wishes to thank them for their
Christmas cards and letters, it was
so nice to hear from them and
to see them as they came home on
leave.
I know you fellows will realize
it is impossible for me to reach you
all, except through The Star, when
I tell you some 1,200 men have en-
tered the Armed Forces after con-
sultation with me — they come
from all over our State and from
many other states. Then there are I
all the Career men. Inasmuch as
they do not get The Star, I must !
reach them individually which is i
some job.
I wish the people of Winchester
might see all our local men in uni-
form in one group. What a tine
example of Young America they
are. They are doing so well and
everybody would he just as proud
of them as I am. Overseas they
will he great examples of ambas-
sadors of goodwill and the Amer-
ican way of life.
The Medford Recruiting Station
joins us in wishing you success in
your various fields and the very ,
best for 1954.
Cordially yours,

Superintendent of Schools Harry
V. Gilson this week released the
text of tlu* notice which has been
sent to the parents of elementary
school children regarding tlu* school
committee policy on daily school
sessions during severe winter
weather. Attention was also called
to tlu* announcement that, during
the present schedule, No School
signals for the afternoon session
for elementary schools will be at
12:05 p. m. rather than 12:40 p. m.
The full statement is printed below.
Winchester Public Schools
Winchester, Massachusetts
December 18, 1953
Dear Patron:
Your attention is called to a
policy established by the School
Gommittee on daily school sessions:
1. Inasmuch as the only reason
for the Single Session Day is to
protect the pupil from traffic hazard
caused by snow accumulation, the
present schedule of school hours
will remain until severe weather
ets in.
2. When in the judgment of the
Superintendent such hazard docs
exist, he will give written notice to
the parents that a Single Session
schedule will be put into effect. Such
a schedule will he:
8:30 a. m. — Schools Open
2:00 p. m. — Schools Close
A lunch hour of thirty minutes
will he allowed all pupils.
It is suggested that for safety
reasons, the pupils remain at school
during the lunch period. However,
any pupil who can go homo and
return within the thirty minute
time limit will he permitted to do
so.
Parents shall write the school as
to their decision on whether they
wish their child to remain, or go
home. No Change In This Decision
Shall Be Made After This Policy
Goes I to Effect. A child cannot re-
main one day and go home another.
The Single Session schedule will
continue until terminated by vote <>f
the School Committee.
During the present schedule, the
Elementary Schools will, as usual,
he closed at noon in tlu* event of
extreme weather. No School
Signals for afternoon session for
elementary schools will be at 12:05
p. m. rather than 12:40 p. m.
Your sincere co-operation will be

MISS ALICE E. CARY
MISS10NER TO SPEAK HERE i
A NEW YEAR’S THOUGHT
The New Year i** as good a time
as any — perhaps the best — to be-
gin again this business of life; to
try to make amends; to give prom-
ises; to hope and to work for the
better things in life. We mean
things like a good and wholesome
community. It can he done, you
know. Three hundred Red Feather
agencies in Metropolitan Boston
show you the way daily.
How do they do it? They take
one unhappy or deprived person and
add a simple pleasure, sometimes
free, like sunshine and fresh air;
sometimes costly, like precious
penicillin or priceless talent.
Red Feather agencies then mix
in a little time, a lot of hard work,
as much money as can be spared,
and all the love and kindness at
their disposal. Result: one New
Year's cocktail that beats them all
because it means a new year of
happiness and hope for someone.
S ou help, you know, every time
you think about your neighbor and
care about him, every time you dig
down deep to give a little something
to Red Feather. Making a com-
munity good and wholesome is not i
easy nor is it cheap. But, because
it has been done and is being done
daily, you can laugh at the skeptics
who scoff and shrug away their
responsibilities to one another.
Edgar Guest said it nicely:
There are thousands to tell you it
cannot be done.
There are thousands to prophesy
failure;
There are thousands to point out to
you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail
you.
But just buckle in with a hit of grin,
Just take off your coat and go to
it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle
the thing
That “cannot be done,” and you’ll
do it.
This is the belief held by our Red
Feather agencies which are striving
constantly to make this the health-
iest, safest, an d happiest commu-
nity in all the world.

developing around the world is in- j
deed the hope of tlu* future and the
major factor in binding the world '
together in peace,” says Miss Alice'
L. Gary of Boston, Massachusetts,
Secretary of the American Board
(of Commissioners for Foreign Mis-]
I si oas for Japan, Micronesia and the
Philippines recently hack from a
more than five months administra- ]
five tour around the world. She
will speak Tuesday, January 12, at

Winchester.
Miss Cary’s trip, made mostly by
air-, included visits to those “Chris-
tians from Boston” in the South
Seas who became known and loved
by the American Armed Forces dur-
ing World War II. To them, as they
celebrated the 100th Birthday of
the planting in the islands of the
Christian church by Congregational I
missionaries, she presented a gold ]

Curfew laws fcu
WAYWARD YOulH 60 BACK
10 HEDIEVAl PRAGUE
Curfew is still a live issue. As
problems of juvenile delinquency
mount, civu authorities from coast
to coast are dusting ott long unen-
forced regulations and considering
new ones.
A Washington, 1>. t\, commis-
sioner has suggested a law that
would keep children under 112 oil
the capital streets at night. Under
and oid curfew ordinance, a Los
Angeles judge lined the parents of
cignt boys who had ambushed and
attacked a small group of adults.
Curfew restrictions go hack at
least to medieval times, says the
National Geographic Society. The
word itself is from the French
“couvre-feu” (cover lire), an ex-
pression introduced into England
with the Norman invasion, llut
the practice was already old when
William the Conqueror came.
Anglo- Saxon towns in the reign of
Allred the Great rang a nightly
hell, warning inhabitants to close
their doors and cover their tires.
Saved Lives And Property
Curfew was a life-and-death
matter in the Middle Ages, when
most houses were built of wood,
and a live ember could start a con-
flagration that would destroy a
city.
It also served as a protection
against the footpads and robbers
who swarmed the highways and the
dark, unpoliced streets. The toll-
ing of the bell, or in some cases the
blowing of a horn, at 7 or 8 o’clock,
announced that all honest men
should be at home, and that any-
one wandering abroad was liable to
so vc re puni sh m ent.
Through the centuries, curfew
lias been a potent curb upon plot-
ters against those in authority.
The Nazi occupation forces of
World War II used it widely, step-
ping up the penalties as defeat
neared and local acts of sabotage
increased.
The famous 19th-century poem,
“Curfew Must Not King Tonight”
told a romantic story set in Eng-
land under Cromwell’s iron rule.
Its gentle heroine saved her Loyal-
ist lover, doomed to die at curfew
time, by clinging to the tongue of
the hell, thus muffling it.
Curfew Still Kings
As a tradition, many English
towns and villages still sound the
curfew bell each evening at 8 or 9
o’clock. Even in London the custom
is observed on the old hell at Lin-
coln Inn. Chester, Lichfield and
Totnes not only toll the curfew hour
but add the day of the month.
The Puritans brought the curfew
to the American colonies. Eventu-
ally the custom spread south and
west and took the form of muni-
cipal ordinances prohibiting young
people from appearing on the
streets after certain hours.
Thousands of such laws remain
on the hooks, though they are en-
forced only periodically. In 19*12,
according to a report of the Amer-
ican Municipal Association, from
10 to 90 percent of all American
cities had adopted curfew restric-
tions. Since then, the Association’s
records indicate that the number
lias grown steadily larger.
The 1954 polio vaccine trials will
be the largest scientifically con-
trolled tests in medical history.
BOTTOM IS TOPS
ON SARA ISLAND
Snhn is a tiny Ihitcn island in
t lie Cftribbrnn where people speak
English, boats are built on nimin*
taintops, there nr • nt least two Wo
men for every man, and Bottom is
topside.
Moreover, says the National
Geographic Society, Saba is one of
the few golden Caribbean isles
which make no special play for
tourists. There are scarcely a half
dozen room for guests.
Saba is five square miles of vol-
canic rock midway between Puerto
Kico and Guadeloupe. It is home
to sonic 1,000 people. Of compar-
atively recent geological origin,
Saha rises sheer from the sea, a
single cone more than 2,850 feet
high. Lashing at the base, a
pounding surf seems to delight in
the fact that Saba lias no harbor.
To approach Saba from the
schooner which calls weekly from
St. Kitts, a visitor must trust in
luck and the seamanship of the
island boatmen. Skillfully man-
euvering their surf boats to the
crest of a wave, they dash between
threatening rocks to a crash larnl-
ing at Fort Bay, a bench about as
big as a bedspread.
deeps, the only vehicles on the
island, transport visitors upward
«*n Saba’s new concrete rood built
laboriously by hand. It winds up
the mountain through a fissure in
tin* reddish-brown volcanic rock.
At the top is Bottom. Bottom,
with some 300 people, is the prin-
cipal one of four villages and the
seat of the island’s government. It
nestles in the basin of an extinct
crater — the only reasonably level
area on the island.
In other villages, which cling
precariously to steep mountain-
sides, the descendants of early Eng-
lish settlers built boats of cedar,
cypress and spruce. When they
are ready for launching, they are
carried to the sea on men’s
shoulders, or lowered down the
cliffs on ropes.
Besides boatbuilding, the prim-
ary occupation is raising vege-
tables in the volcanic soil. Crops
stay alive on Saba with the nightly
aid of a heavy dew.
Women augment the family in-
come by exporting mail order
customers bits of fine Spanish em-
broidery. Most of the young men
go to sea or emigrate to the oil re-
fining islands of Curacao and
Aruba, also Dutch.
They contribute by mail to the
support of their parents and sis-
ters. But their absence results in
a dearth of marriageable men.
That is why Saban women
anxiously await the weekly schoon-
er and the occasional steamer. The
.ship may bring a payment for their
embroidery, a check from a brother
overseas, or who knows — an
eligible bachelor.
BLOCKADES ARE AS OLD
AS NAVAL WAR
Blockades arc legal under inter-
national rules of war, but only if
they have been declared and can
| be enforced.
Declaration serves the humane
I purpose of putting neutral states
on notice that their ships may be
seized, the cargoes jettisoned or
confiscated, and the crews arrested,
should they try to take food, arms
or aviation gasoline to a warring j
nation.
An unwritten rule, however, in-
jects a practical note. If the block-
ading power has not enough ships,
or more lately, aircraft, to enforce
its blockade, then anybody may
ignoiv it and still stay within in-
ternational law.
Closed Axis Ports
In World War II, Britain closed!
the ports of Germany and Italy,
hut no blockade was proclaimed,
says the National Geographic So-
ciety.
Germany, on the other hand, an-
nounced a submarine blockade of
the British Isles, gaining the legal
power to halt or destroy all ship-
ping for the Allied powers as long
as her undersea raiders complied
with other rules of war. But even
her great submarine fleet proved
not enough to stop shipping en-
tirely, hence the blockade lost its
force in international law despite
tremendous loss of life.
Blockades are as old as naval
warfare, but in the last two and a
half centuries they have had legal
standing.
Ancient Troy was conquered by
invading Greeks through the stra-
tegem of tin* wooden horse, but
presence of a Greek fleet otf the
Dardanelles, a fleet that prevented
normal commerce in foodstuffs and
ordinary civilian needs, had much
to do with the final victory of the
forces of Agamemnon over the
Trojans.
War of 1812
In accurately recorded history
perhaps the most famous blockades
were those imposed by the British
against Napoleon, which contribut-
ed to the causes of the War of
1812, and the attempt by Union
forces to eliminate shipping in
southern ports during the Civil
War.
Neither was completely success-
ful, and both enriched blockade
runners. But they had the con-
stricting effect desired and shorten-
ed fighting through absence of
food and military supplies for the
blockaded powers.

HATHAHIELTUFTS ROADS AREA
CHRISTMAS BLOCK PARTY
A Rood crowd numbering seve-
ral hundred attended the third an-
nual Christman block party con-
ducted by the residents of the
Tufts and Nathaniel roads area,
sometimes referred to as “Free-
man’s Acres,” last Sunday, Decern,
her 20.
As usual, the party started with
carol singing, with Joe Raftery of
32 Tufts road once again the mas
ter of ceremonies.
Not only were all the folks of
the neighborhood and their guests
out to await the arrival of Santa;
every dog in the area was there,
running about frantically, no doubt
frustrated by the picket fence sur
rounding the Christmas tree.
And a pretty tree it was, sitting
on the McIntosh lot at the junction
of the two streets, its little lights
beaming merrily in the dusk of the
waning day.
At four thirty the crowd had
begun to assemble. Several of the
children started the proceedings
by singing carols and gradually the
grownups chimed in. Of course, all
this was preliminary to the main
event, the arrival of Santa Claus.
There was much conjecture on
the part of both grownups and
children as to the means of trans-
portation Santa would employ. His
original plan had been to arrive
by horse-drawn sleigh; but of
course the absence of snow made
that impossible. No one doubted for
a moment, however, that Santa
would find a way.
Santa had set the time of his
arrival at five o'clock. As the hour
approached the same feeling of an-
ticipation that is experienced by
young and old alike at the prospect
of seeing the jovial gentleman from
the North, was felt anew. Finally
when it seemed that Santa just
never would get there, at the top
of Tufts road two red blinker lights
pierced the darkness and down the
street rushed an automobile, with
siren screaming. Fire Chief Calla-
han had once again come to the
rescue with transportation for good
old Santa.
As the familiar red suit of the
jolly old gentleman could be dis-
cerned a shout went up that made
the welkins ring. It is certain that
Santa never received a warmer wel-
come.
The children watched, round-
eyed with wonder as Santa stepped
down from the fire chief’s car. On
his back he carried the biggest sack
imaginable. With a cheery wave of
his hand he approached his throne
at the foot of the tree.. A short
greeting to all, and he immediately
proceeded with the dispensing of
his gifts for the children, aided by
Helpers Lloyd McIntosh and Joe
Raftery.
There was the usual varied re-
actions from the children when con-
fronted by Santa Claus. Some ap-
peared elated, others a bit frighten-
ed, and still others assumed an air
of bravado. However, it is certain
that there was not one who was
not impressed by beaming, rotund
St. Nick, who had grown to amaz-
ing proportions since his last visit
u year ago. Ernest Howard, a
friend of the Willettes, played the
role very well, indeed.
As usual it was the grownups
who displayed the greatest interest
in the proceedings as a group. Al-
though some of the children were
greatly excited by the presence of
Santa Claus, a few of the other
children, especially the very small
ones, let their interests wander.
One little girl, held by a harness,
like molasses tried to spread out
in all directions at once. A few of
the others refused to look at all,
hiding their faces or turning their
heads away each time the parent
holding one would turn him around
to see Santa.
However, there is no doubt of the
success of the party. All during the
preceding week the children had
been at fever pitch waiting for
Santa Claus to appear in their
area. And it is certain their wait-
ing was amply rewarded!
Among the children at the party
were:
Jimmy Flynn
Dean Parsons
Candy Parsons

There were several other child-
ren at the party whose names are
not listed. It was not possible to
catch the names of all the children
as they were called out when the
gifts were being presented.
Among the better-known resi-
dents of the town could be seen
Dr. Charles A. Rooney, a guest of
Mr. and Mrs. Richard O’Brien of
28 Tufts road, taking pictures of
the goings-on with a flash camera,
and Michael Foley, the auctioneer,
visiting his daughter, “Bibs”, and
her husband, Frank Willette, of 24
Nathaniel road.
The party as usual was a group
effort, in which virtually the whole
neighborhood participated. No one
but felt amply compensated for his
efforts. As one visitor from another
part of Winchester stated, the
town could well do with a few more
such neighborhood affairs.

enacted the charming story of
Santa’s visit to the Spirit of Christ-
mas. With the exception of the

all of the parts were played by the
first graders.

The first graders appreciated the
help of pupils in Mrs. Woods’ sixth
grade who made the antlers for the
reindeer. Another helper was
third - grader Terry Vercellone,
whose beautiful singing of “White
Christmas” was much enjoyed.
The school’s singing groups joined
forces with Curtain and Cue, the
dramatic society, to wish the stu-
dent body a Merry Christmas at a
ipecial assembly on Wednesday
morning. Traditional songs, instru-
mental music, a lovely tableau, and
a heart-warming play were the in-
gredients of a program that found
much favor with the audience.

by the girls’ glee club, a beautiful
tableau appeared at the front of
the stage. In the group were Betty
Rowlingson, Richard Rimbach, Ann
Cunningham, Don Folkers, Jon Mc-
Carthy and Judy Snelling.
“Christmas Spirit” tells the sto-
ry of how a city girl, somewhat re
sentful over being transplanted to
a small town, discovers the real
meaning of the Christmas spirit.
It was directed by Gail Stratton,
Marilyn Dyer, and Nancy Corey.
Members of the stage crew included
Ted Mansfield, Dann Lewis, and
Gardner Smith; make-up was hand-

Three local girls, students at
Bouve-Boston School, which is affi-
liated with Tufts College, Medford,
are at home for the Christmas holi-
days. They are: Cynthia W. Moses,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Victor C.

NATIONAL BANK
CHRISTMAS PARTY
The office staff of the Winchester
National Bank held their annual
Christmas party on Tuesday eve-
ning at the Suntaug Inn in Lynn-
field.
Winchester Lodge, Sons of Italy,'
held its Christmas party Sunday !
afternoon in the Lincoln School
Hall, playing host to more than (
350 happy youngsters.
Appropriate motion pictures
opened the program, after which
Frank “Hokie” Procopio, who acted
as master of ceremonies, introduced
the lodge president, Dominic Pro-
vinzano, who thanked the commit-
tee in charge of arrangements for
their efforts in providing such a
fine party. President Provinzano
then introduced the committee
chairman George Voci, who ex-
pressed the committee's thanks to
the school committee, to Superin-
tendent of Schools Harry Gilson
and Janitor Peter Benson for their
cooperation in making the party
at the school possible.
Chairman Voci then introduced
the members of his committee,
Dominic Provinzano, Frank Pro-
copio, William Fiore, Carmine
Frongillo, Richard Penta, Peter
Lonigro and Anthony Vespucci, all
of whom took a bow to enthusiastic
applause.
Chairman Voci got a big laugh
and more applause when he thank-
ed Mrs. William Fiore and his own
wife for wrapping more than 350
Christmas packages for the party,
adding the committee’s thanks to
the mothers who had hurried to
get their work done in time to get
their youngsters to the party.
The master of ceremonies then
distributed books of Christmas car-
ols, donated by John Mercurio and
everyone joined in singing Christ-
mas carols with Mrs. Mercurio at
the piano. As an especial feature
the members of the committee sang
two carols by themselves, getting
enthusiastic applause. All present
thoroughly enjoyed three Christ-
mas hymns played as accordion so-
los by* nine-year-old Peter Lonigro,
Jr.
At this point in the program
Santa Claus suddenly appeared at
the party, having arrived unnoticed
by way of a rear entrance. When
the delighted children got over
their surprise at Kris Kringle’s ar-
rival, the jolly Santa distributed
candy and gifts to all the young-
sters, after which ice cream and
cookies were served.
J. H. WINN, INC.
CHRISTMAS PARTY
TB CASES DISCOVERED
Five hundred and sixty-two ac-
tive and inactive cases of tuber-
culosis and 226 cases suspicious of
tuberculosis were discovered dur-
ing the past five years when a total
of 149,014 chest X-rays were taken
through the efforts of the Middle-
sex Health Association, the county
Christmas Seal Agency. These
findings were disclosed by Mr.
David Moxon, Executive Director of
the Association. Many of the per-
sons found to have active TB were
hospitalized and have completed or
are now undergoing treatment.
Pointed out in the statement was
the fact that the number of active
cases within the area would have
multiplied several times if these
cases had not been found and
treated. Many of these chest X-rays
were sponsored cooperatively with
the Massachusetts Department of
Public Health and local boards of
health while other chest X-rays
were financed entirely through
Christmas Seals funds.
The chest X-rays were taken
through comprehensive surveys in
communities and industries,
through periodic screening clinics
and through special programs for
admissions to general hospitals.
Mr. Moxon also indicated that
the Association’s casefinding pro-
gram during the coming year will
be directed to reach older age
groups since greater numbers of
tuberculosis cases are being found
here. To reach these groups great-
er emphasis will be placed on in-
dustrial X-ray programs, general
hospital admission X-ray programs
and permanent type X-ray facil-
ities.
“This represents a moderately ex-
panded program and a more ex-
pansive one. We , sincerely hope
that everyone will contribute gener-
ously to the Christmas Seal Sale
which is now in progress so that
the casefinding programs and other
phases of the Association’s pro-
gram can be accelerated to meet the
current needs in the fight against
TB”, Mr. Moxon concluded.

J. H. Winn Inc., held its annual
Christmas Party at Winchester
Town Hall Saturday evening, De- j
cember 19th. At 6:00 p. m. the
employees and their guests sat
down to a delicious roast ham din-
ner.
Following the dinner Rev. Ar-
thur L. Winn, former partner and
son of the founder, Mr. J. H. Winn,
gave an interesting history of the
founding and growth of the com-
pany from 1868 to the present time.
Mr. Winn had pictures taken at the
turn of the century showing the
original watch hand factory in the
Highlands, built at the edge of the
now abandoned mill pond which
was then used for wnter power to
power the shop machinery.
Mr. William Parsons, a guest of
President E. B. Dade, gave a few
observations of the value of an in-
dustry such as Winns to the com-
munity ns a whole, not only ns far
ns the payment of taxes directly to
the town, but also in the employ-
ment of many of the towns citizens,
some having worked continuously
for the firm for over forty years.
On the occasion of the eighty-
fifth anniversary of the founding,
the firm honored Miss M. A. G.
Haggerty, who has worked conti-
nuously for the firm for forty-five
years, and Mr. George Morse, who
has worked continuously for the
firm for forty years, the total years
worked by these two equaling the
number of years the firm has been
operating.
Mr. E. B. Dade, President of J.
II. Winn Inc., reported on several
items of interest to the employees,
including the Health and Accident
Program, Profit Sharing Program,
individual savings of employees
through Bonds and Christmas Club
and reviewed company operations
in a general way.
This portion of the program was
followed by a minstrel show put on
by the employees. Between fifty
and sixty employees participated in
the show under the leadership of
Leonard Clark. The songs, ♦am-
bourine overture, specialty acts,
the appearance of Miss J. H. Winn
>f 1953, and jokes were enjoyed by
all.
Following the show the hall was
cleared for dancing to Duke Her-
lund’s “Friendly Music” until mid-
night.

Pack 3 Notes
Winchester Club Scouts of Pack
3 participated in one of the most
impressive Yuletide programs of
the season Wednesday night, De-
cember 10. In the first of what is
expected to ho an annual affair, the
group met at the Depot and march-
ed by dens in a candle-lit parade to
the Common.
Lights on the big Christmas tree
were put out as parents and cubs
circled around and sang carols by
candlelight under the direction of
Robert Carlson. To the tune of
Jingle Bells they then pranced to
Chidley Hall in the First Congre-
gational Church for their Christ-
mas party.
Each Cub brought along two
gifts. Santa Claus — Jim Harring-
ton — distributed one of these gifts
to each of the Cubs and the other
went to the Winchester Community
Relief Committee. Refreshments
then were served.
Tom Walsh, the Cubmaster, pre-
sented achievement awards to John
Sherban, Garry Callahan and Jim
Holdam.
The colorful program, which will
long be remembered by the Cubs,
their parents and those who at-
tended was handled by a commit-
tee of five. They were: Mrs. Char-
les Newton, Mrs. James Dolben, II.
Rudolph Gieger, Mrs. Byron Graves
and Richard Bateman.

del S-3t
recent
New England Lawn Tennis Asso-
ciation when he became the first
to he awarded the new Gardner W.
Chase Memorial Trophy as “the
male player and sportsman who,
by his character and sportsman-
ship made an outstanding contribu-
tion to tennis in our section.”
The award, which is to be an-
nual, has been set up by Mr. and
Mrs. Harrison F. Rowbotham of
Wnban in memory of Mrs. Row-
hot ham’s father, Gardner W. Chase.
^ Mr. Hawley’s influence on New
England tennis has been strong
during the past two years and es-
pecially so during the time he has
headed the New England Junior
Tennis Development Committee.
Largely through his efforts the
committee has instituted a greatly
expanded program of junior tennis
activity and has brought the game
to many more boys and girls in all
parts of New England.
The formation of a New England
Junior Tennis League this past
season, with Winchester the first
team to enroll in this district, sti-
mulated interest to such an extent
that it is expected more than 60
Junior Tennis League teams will be
playing competitive tennis in all
sections of New England next sea-
son. For much of this progress
Mr. Hawley’s enthusiasm and drive
have been responsible. As a player,
too, he has been prominent on the
Now England front. New England
champion last season, he topped
the sectional rankings in both sin-
gles and doubles, a notable achieve-
ment when you consider the time
and effort he gave to junior tennis.
He was also named second vice
president of the New England
Lawn Tennis Association.
Happy as Mr. Hawley undoubt-
edly is over his personal honors, he
is very probably most pleased over
-he fact that several Winchester
names appear in the 1954 N. E.
rankings. In the junior, or older
girls’ singles rankings ‘True” Mor-
ton is ranked ninth, while in the
junior doubles, Winchester’s Sylvia
Crowelli and Jeanne McKenzie are
ranked sixth.
In girls’ singles (15 and under)
Penny Nichols is ranked third and
Jeanne McKenzie, fourth. Lee Ab-
bott also is ranked eleventh in this
bracket. Lee Abbott and Jeanne
McKenzie are ranked second in
girls’ doubles.
No boys are ranked among the
top junior hoys or younger hoys’
listings, hut several local young-
sters added materially to their ten-
nis experience and skill last season
so that hopes of crashing the top
ten another year are being held
out.
Among the town’s older players,
Mrs. Arthur Hills is ranked ninth
in women’s singles, and sixth with
Mrs. Arklcy Richards in women’s
doubles.
Arthur Hills teamed with Robert
Joslin to he ranked seventh in
men’s doubles, and was also elect-
ed a delegate-at-large for the New
England Lawn Tennis Association.
WINCHESTER HOMEFRONTERS
ustom of sending some Christmas
challenge, along with the personal
greetings, in the form of a mimeo-
graphed letter. The written medi-
tation this year reveals the trend
of various groups celebrating
Christmas. Following is a copy
which we have before us.
Personal Greetings to von
from *Ts Five” Snooks
A Joyous Season to You
While Phyllis, Jacqueline, Jane,
Wesley, and I are preparing our-
selves for the Christmas festivities,
we do want to include in them our
sincere wishes for a Christmas
season filled with meaning, appre-
ciation, and blessings.
Other than just to wish you the
customary “Merry Christmas nnd
Happy New Year” we would also
desire to offer a challenge that
might stir every mind and heart
toward genuine Christmas thought
and activity.
Allow us to say that there are
three types of Christmas celebrat-
ors.
The first group will substitute
the letter X-mas, which usually
denotes the algebraic unknown. The
day will he a holiday, supplanting
tin* real holy day ana Christ will
not enter the picture. Christmas
chores become Christmas bores and
the season will pass without a
“thank you, Lord.’’
The second group will come into
the “folksy Christmas” class. This
is the Christmas of too many peo-
ple and is spelled with a small “e.”
There is good fellowship and they
respond to it. There are many fa-
mily gatherings, exchanging of
gifts, and much fun. It is all good
but we can have such a Christmas
and miss its much deeper meaning.
The third group will give reve-
rential regard to the occasion and
commemorate the birth of the
Christ child with a sense of thank-
fulness to God for the greatest gift
ever given to mankind, Jesus
Christ. That gratitude will be ex-
pressed by prayer, allegiance, and
devotion.
He who would get the best out
of Christmas must have spiritual
communion with God.
God grant that we may find, or
make cause to find ourselves in the
third group. Let us not only com-
memorate our Saviour’s birth, but
also serve Him as the King of our
lives.
Then we can keep Christmas.
May the Christmas season add
som new worthwhile joy to your
life and may the New Year chal-
lenge us all to the best life possible
in the service of our King whose
power can dispel anxiety, turmoil,
and sin and bring peace to men of
good will.
Most Sincerely — In Him
“Us Five Snooks”
Wesley Jane Jacqueline
Phyllis John, Jr.
Note: Suggested reading — Luke
I and II
While it is good to witness the
semblance of rapture in old and
young alike, it is good, wise and
beneficial to those who follow the
deeper implications of this com-
memoration.
Through the conscientious efforts
of our executive-chairman, Mrs.
William Cusack, Mrs. Frank Car-
roll, radio message chairman, and
her committee: Mrs. Marion Kelly
and Mrs. John ChafFc, eighty-five
Christmas messages were sent to
Winchester Servicemen who

THE SENIOR FORUM
This Sunday, December 27, is
again Forum Sunday nt Church
when members of the Senior Forum
of the First Congregational Church
will attend the regular 10:45 serv-
ice. Forum chaplain will be
David Pratt.
At 4:00 in the afternoon, in Rip-
ley Chapel, will he held the Annual
Forum Alumni Vesper Service.
This is a time for reunion among
former Forum members who are
home for the holidays, and a chance
for them to meet the present mem-
bers. The service is arranged and
conducted by three former Forum
presidents, Dave Archibald, Dick
Rush and Bill Johnston, and Forum
will again have the pleasure of
hearing Dorothy Brandt who will
sing, “Voice in the Wilderness” by
John Scott. A message will he
brought to the group by Reverend
Robert Dodds.
Mr. Dodds was born in India but
obtained his education in this coun-
try. He received his A. B. degree
from Columbia in 1940, and his
S. T. B. degree from Harvard Div-
inity School in 1948. For a short
time he held a pastorate on Cape
Cod and was President of the Capist
Ministry. He has especially en-
joyed working with young people
and was active in many youth pro-
grams. He spent a period of doing
Social Work, after which he was
sent to have charge of a Students
in Industry program at Hartford,
Conn., a student Christian move-
ment project. For the past three
and one-half years he has been
Minister of Students at the Con-
gregational Church in Cambridge,
of which the student group is known
as the Congregational-Presbyterian
Student Fellowship, where his suc-
cess has been widespread. Since he
will leave this position in the spring
to be minister at the Second Con-
gregational Church in Waterbury,
Conn., Forum is indeed fortunate in
this opportunity to meet him while
lie is still in Massachusetts.

MEN S CLUB TO SEE
INDUSTRIAL MIRACLE
('in Tuesday evening, January 5,
the Men’s Club meeting of the First
Congregational Church in Win-
chester will feature a demonstra-
tion of one of America’s greatest
industrial miracles, the transistor.
This presentation by Mr. Robert W.
Stokes of the New England Tele-
phone nnd Telegraph Company will
illustrate the amazing properties of
this tiny device which has been
hailed ns the greatest advance in
communications since Lee Do For-
est invented the radio tube forty-
six years ago.
Invented by the Bell Telephone
Laboratories, the transistor, whose
working parts arc about the size of
a pinhead, is slated to drastically
I reduce the size and weight of fa-
■ miliar communication devices with
striking improvements in reliability
and length of life. While still in
the experimental stage, the trans-
istor will eventually open exciting
new frontiers in telephony, radio,
television radar, guided missiles,
and the whole field of military and
aviation electronics.
In this demonstration, members
nnd guests will have an opportunity
to see nnd hear a tiny vest-pocket
rndio transmitter made famous by
the comic strips. They will hear
transistors operating on batteries
made from blotting paper and a
coin. Because transistors have no
heating elements, there is no warm
up period, nnd the amount of power
required to operate this new device
is fantastically small. Such char-
acteristics unquestionably will
lead to more efficient, less costly,
and more reliable telephone service,
radio and television transmission
and reception.
This popular science demonstra-
tion will he the first of its kind ever
presented in the Metropolitan Bos-
ton Area and offers an exciting pre-
view of ore of the newest develop-
ments in the electronics field.

of two Navy enlistments, was be-
lieved to have been instantly killed
shortly after 4:30 o’clock Tuesday
afternoon when the Plymouth tuxi
he was driving for the Doherty
Taxi Cab Company of Woburn, was
in collision with an in-bound train !
at the spot where the tracks of the
Woburn loop of the Boston & Maine
Railroad cross Hill street.
Hill street is a private way, and
a dirt road not in good condition
for travel. The railroad crossing
is not protected by gates or bar-
riers of any kind, but is posted at
both sides with “no trespassing”
signs.
According to the police account
of the accident young Mathews was
driving the taxicab along Hill
street toward Main street when the
collision occurred. The left front
of the engine, No. 3649, stmek the
right side of the automobile about
in the middle, the force of the im-
pact wedging the car against the
front of the locomotive. The en-
gine swept along the wreckage of
the cab for a distance of about
I, 000 feet, finally stopping at the
rear of Mottolo’s store on upper
Main street.
The engineer of the train, Joseph
Perry of 124 Rice street, Lowell,
told the police he did not see the
car approaching the track, his place
being on the right side of the cab.
The fireman, John II. Kempton of
55 St. James street, Dracut, who
was on the left side of the cab
saw the car coming down Hill street
from the direction of White street
as the train was headed south
toward Winchester. lie told the
police he believed the operator was
hurled from the car after the col-
lision, somewhere between Hill
street and the Swanton street
bridge.
Officers John Murray and John
Hogan were the first police sent
to the scene after the accident was
reported with Officer Mario Buz-
zotta and Firefighter Norman Dou-
cette following immediately in the
police ambulance. Other police as-
sisting were Officers William T.
Haggerty, Andrew Crawford, Er-
win Nurnberger and William Cal-
lahan.
After dispatching police to the
scene of the accident Chief Charles
J. Harrold notified the Fire Depart-
ment, Engine II and Ladder I going
to assist with Captain Ray Hans-
com in charge of a detail, compris-
ing Firelighters Walter Carroll,
Daniel Stygles and Peter GalufTo.
Chief James E. Callahan of the Fire
Department also was on the scene.
The firefighters had a booster line
in readiness if the gasoline from
the wrecked taxi became ignited.
Meanwhile the police and fire-
fighters commenced a search along
th# tracks for the missing operator
Of the taxi. He was found by Offic-
ers Buzzota, Callahan and Nurn-
berger and Firefighter Doucette
lying on the north hound tracks
about 75 feet south of the Swanton
street bridge. He was terribly in-
jured and was pronounced dead
upon his arrival at the Winchester
Hospital by Dr. Charles E. Rooney.
Medical examiner John Wilcox of
Woburn viewed the body of the
young man, who was unmarried
and not long out of the armed
forces where he had risked death
on several occasions. His parents
were notified by the Woburn Po-
lice, relaying a message from local
Headquarters.
While the victim of the accident
was being rushed to the hospital
another search was instituted for
a possible passenger in the taxi at
the time of the collision. It was
learned, however, that the young
man had delivered a fare in the Hill
street neighborhood and was on his
way back to Woburn alone.
Firefighters attempted to remove
the car from the front of the loco-
motive. but so tightly was it
wedged against the engine that the
cow-catcher 1 uk 1 to be cut away
with the Fire Department’s acet-
ylene cutting torch, brought to the
scene of the accident by Firefighter
Michael Connolly. After getting
the demolished car off the tracks it
was towed into the Beggs & Cobb
yard to be removed later.
Several persons living in the
neighborhood told the police they
saw the taxi driving toward the
crossing and tried to warn the
operator of the approaching train.
They were unable however to at-
tract his attention in time to avoid
the tragedy.
